Re: Attempting to make a plugin

Can anyone help out with this? I can't distinguish which button is pressed. I've been trying to see if ExternalCommandData has the information I need but I can't seem to get a dialogbox that says "Button 1" or "Button 2"

    class Lab1PlaceGroup : IExternalApplication

        {
            string tabName = "Crystal";
            string path = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location;
            application.CreateRibbonTab(tabName);


            RibbonPanel panel = application.CreateRibbonPanel(tabName, "New Ribbon Panel");

            panel.AddSeparator();
            AddPushButton(panel);
            //AddSplitButton(panel);
            //AddStackedButtons(panel);
            AddSlideOut(panel);

            return Result.Succeeded;
            
        }
        public Autodesk.Revit.UI.Result OnShutdown(UIControlledApplication application)
        {

            // create some controls for the slide out
            PushButtonData b1 = new PushButtonData("ButtonName1", "Button 1", assembly, "Lab1PlaceGroup.HelloWorld");
            b1.LargeImage = new BitmapImage(new Uri(@"D:\Images\globe.jpg"));

            b2.LargeImage = new BitmapImage(new Uri(@"D:\Images\globe.jpg"));



            // items added after call to AddSlideOut() are added to slide-out automatically
            panel.AddItem(b1);
            panel.AddItem(b2);
