Model view rotation notification

Model view rotation notification

(OP)
Hi!

We are developing an add-in to NX. We use NXOpen.

Question:
is there any way to know in the code that an user is rotating/panning/zooming the view?
This could probably be in any form:
- a simple method which returns the state of user interaction (like SolidWorks API has get_DynamicMode() and GetMouseDragMode()),
- or subscription to specific user interaction events (like ProE/Creo has),
- or checking the state of some specific interaction command (like CATIA has).

Thank you in advance

RE: Model view rotation notification

Try creating a journal that includes some display manipulation operations and then open the journal file in a text editor and see what sort of content this generates.

No any feedback information is put in the journal, just commands like Zoom/Rotate.
Any other ideas?
