Where's the documentation?
Forums are not a good source for knowledge

Do you really have no proper documentation? I'm currently trying to use `SendMessage()` and `AddinModule_OnSendMessage()` which is proving difficult simply due to a lack of documentation. Normally when I writing code for a specific platform (in this case ADX) I'd have documentation open on one screen, code on the other. I can't do that here. The only docs I can get on these functions is fragmented bits and pieces of code and support across dozens of pages of forum and blog posts. The fact that a project the size (and age!) of add in express doesn't have solid documentation is actually insane.

Hello,

We provide a) Add-in Express manual and b) Add-in Express class reference.

The manual is the .PDF file in {Add-in Express installation folder}\Docs\; also you can download the .PDF file at https://www.add-in-express.com/downloads/documentation.php.

The class reference is registered with the Visual Studio; if this isn't the case for you - this may occur if the Help subsystem isn't initialized - we suggest that you download a .CHM at https://www.add-in-express.com/downloads/documentation.php.

As to using SendMessage / OnSendMessage, see section Wait a Little in the manual.
