How to activate a slide-in pane using script (OMI Toolkit)?

Richard Köhlerstrand  or Loris Carboni , do you know if this requires clients to be set up as development nodes to add the dlls? If that's the case the proposed solution would work on my development server but not on our clients. And it would also require additional dev-licenses for the clients? Thanks in advance

I would believe that calls using the OMI Toolkit should not require any additional licenses or software as long as you are keeping to the usage within your application.

GRAccess is a different story, since it act as a IDE client.

But let me try, I can deploy the solution invoking the slide in panel to one of my Terminal Servers, that where 'only' installed as Runtime Client.

Seems to be working just fine.

Thank you so much This will come in great use at our newly commissioned factory!

Yep as Richard said it works.

the DLL will be deployed on the targeted node.

@Richard Not sure why but the DLL can’t be imported. If we have the case for our clients we will raise a case to our local distributor

The SDK assemblies are installed with OMI so they are always there is the same location.

However, when importing it into the galaxy there is a risk that a copy of the assembly will be carried with the galaxy onwards since script library import tends to embedd copies rather than making a loose binding to the assembly location. This means that when upgrading to newer versions, patches, applicable hotfixes, you may need to re-import the assembly again from the standard location.

An alternative would be to use the SDK to build an OMI App that exposes methods for controlling the slide-in panes. Such apps, assuming dependencies are linked correctly, will not carry their own copy of the assemblies. The app can be made completely invisible, it just needs a home in a pane somewhere. This worked pretty for the demos I built in my previous job.

Thanks Rickard for your insights !

it make sense
