AddInModule and GitHub...

Greetings,

using VS 2013 and GitHub. When opening a project and switching to AddInModule just to check some things there, this leads allways to changes in several lines like

Me.cmdbarInspectors.UpdateCounter = 135
Me.cmdbarExplorer.UpdateCounter = 79


Thus i'm forced to save and push the project without having done any 'real' changes in design or code or i must do an 'Undo' to AddInModule.vb to get rid of this. And it's espcially very irritating when switching branches an get this blocked due to unpushed local changes. What exactly is the purpose of 'UpdateCounter'? Do we really need this? What can we do to stop this annoying behaviour? Thanks for any hints...

Hi Heinz-Josef,

This property is used to update (install/uninstall/modify) old-fashion command bars and controls when the add-in is loaded. If you don't need the support for Office 2003 and earlier, I would recommend you using the Ribbon UI. It doesn't have such counter.

I can't reproduce this issue on my PC. What version of Add-in Express do you use?

Hi Sergey,

thanks for your response. We have just updated to 8.1.4350. As we support Office 2003 to 2016 nearly all our add ins have both old Commandbars and new Ribbon UI implemented. But step by step 2003 is removed, so sooner or later the problem will be gone ,-) And as long as there are no other changes to AddInModule.vb we can use 'Undo' from the context menu. Case closed ;)
