Hi,

There is a drop down fields that has class names

And there is a button

I want to say that if the class value chosen inhertits from a certain class then hide this button.

I need to say if it inherits from it directly.

So let's say we have base class A

Class B is child of A

Class C is child of B

The code needs to say any class that inherits directly from A, then the button needs to be disabled

So in this case if we choose class B, button will be disabled

But if we choose class C it won't

I have the same question (0)

Hi Junior,

As Martin told you can make use of Extend method of DictClass. You can also make use of the ExtendedBy which will give the list of class that extend a specified class.

For more details refer to the below Microsoft Documentation.

Thanks,

Girish S.
