Close Tabs opened by LayoutDiagramEx

[Bencrush]

Hi

i am using LayoutDiagramEx in my Addin to layout my diagrams. But this method opens a new tab for every diagram. My problem is, that there are serveral hundreds of diagrams to layout and EA always crashes, because of too many tabs.

Is there a way to directly close or even just not open a new a tab when layouting an diagram?

Thank you very much

Ben,

You could try to set Repository.EnableUIUpdates to false, and if that doesn't work close the diagram after layouting it by Repository.CloseDiagram (long DiagramID)

Hi Ben?

I had the same problem...  Basically, you need to keep track of open and closed diagrams yourself.

If you are explicitly opening the diagrams with your Add-In, you need to close it yourself.

I think there was some discussion recently on how to detect if a diagram is already open (without resorting to using broadcast events).

HTH,
Paolo

Thank you for your fast replies

I tried Repository.CloseDiagram (long DiagramID) as Geert said and it worked perfect. I guess I was blind, not finding it in the User Guide.
Thank you very much

Ben
