Autodesk Forge Create Activity

I am using Autodesk Forge DesignAutomatin V3 in C# and am getting an error when creating an Activity.
this is the error i receive: System.IO.InvalidDataException: 'CommandLine is a required property for Activity and cannot be null'
Here is how i am setting up the activity.
var activity = new Activity()
{
CommandLine = new List<string>() { $"$(engine.path)\\accoreconsole.exe /i $(args[InputModel].path) /al $(appbundles[{_bundleId}].path) /s $(settings[script].path)" },
Parameters = new Dictionary<string, ModelParameter>()
{
{ "HostDwg", new ModelParameter() { Verb = ModelParameter.VerbEnum.Get, LocalName = "$(HostDwg)", Required = true } },
{ "InputModel", new ModelParameter() { Verb = ModelParameter.VerbEnum.Get, LocalName = "3DBuild.dxf", Required = true, } },
{ "Result", new ModelParameter() { Verb = ModelParameter.VerbEnum.Put, Zip = true, LocalName = _outPutFileName, Required = true } }
},
Engine = _engineVersion,
Appbundles = new List<string>() { myApp },
Settings = new Dictionary<string, dynamic>()
{
{ "script", new StringSetting() { Value = string.Format("DXFIN\n\"3DBuild.dxf\"\nExplodeModel\n-view sw\nDXFOUT\n{0}\n16\n", _outPutFileName) } }
},
Description = "DXF processor",
Version = 1,
Id = _activityName
};

Please use exclusive Design Automation .NET core SDK for v3, it appears that you are referring Design Automation namespace from autodesk.forge.
When you add new SDK, make sure you remove this - using Autodesk.Forge.Model.DesignAutomation.v3; from your code.
var activity = new Activity() {
CommandLine = new List < string > () {

}, Parameters = new Dictionary < string, Parameter > () {
{
"HostDwg",
new Parameter() {
Verb = Verb.Get, LocalName = "$(HostDwg)", Required = true
}
}, {

new Parameter() {
Verb = Verb.Get, LocalName = "3DBuild.dxf", Required = true,
}

filter on CollectionProperties gives me all 4 records instead of 2

I have a list lstCollectionInstances which has 4 collection instance,
var lstCollectionInstances = new List<CollectionInstance>
{
new CollectionInstance
{
Name = "A",
CollectionProperties = new List<CollectionProperty>
{
new CollectionProperty {Name = "P1", Value = 10, DataType = "D"}
}
},
new CollectionInstance
{
Name = "A",
CollectionProperties = new List<CollectionProperty>
{
new CollectionProperty {Name = "P2", Value = "H1", DataType = "S"}
}
},
new CollectionInstance
{
Name = "B",
CollectionProperties = new List<CollectionProperty>
{
new CollectionProperty {Name = "P1", Value = 20, DataType = "D"}
}
},
new CollectionInstance
{
Name = "B",
CollectionProperties = new List<CollectionProperty>
{
new CollectionProperty {Name = "P2", Value = "H2", DataType = "S"}
}
},
};
Now when I filter it based on CollectionProperty data types D it's should give me 2 records, but below code giving me all 4 records, what is missing here?
var X = lstCollectionInstances.Select(x => new CollectionInstance
{
Name = x.Name,
CollectionProperties = x.CollectionProperties.Where(cp => cp.DataType == "D").ToList()
}).ToList();

This one selects all instances with a property of type D.
var result= lstCollectionInstances
.Where(x => x.CollectionProperties.Any(y => y.DataType == "D"))
.ToList();

It is because you're executing Select in each item of lstCollectionInstances and Where in CollectionProperties. It will return 4 items which 2 of them have empty CollectionProperties. You should execute Where first like:
var X = lstCollectionInstances.Where(a => a.CollectionProperties.Any(cp => cp.DataType == "D")).Select(x => new CollectionInstance
{
Name = x.Name,
CollectionProperties = x.CollectionProperties
}).ToList();

how to set "table direction", using openxml.wordprocessing

I'm working to create new document that has a Right to Left table. how can i set table direction to RTL?
i tried the following code but it isn't working:
Table tb = new Table(new TableLayout() { Type = TableLayoutValues.Autofit });
tb.Append( new TableProperties(new TextDirection() { Val=TextDirectionValues.TopToBottomRightToLeft}, new RightToLeftText() { Val =new DocumentFormat.OpenXml.OnOffValue(true) }, new TableBorders(new TopBorder { Val = new DocumentFormat.OpenXml.EnumValue<BorderValues>(BorderValues.BasicThinLines), Size = 5 }, new BottomBorder { Val = new DocumentFormat.OpenXml.EnumValue<BorderValues>(BorderValues.BasicThinLines), Size = 5 }, new LeftBorder { Val = new DocumentFormat.OpenXml.EnumValue<BorderValues>(BorderValues.BasicThinLines), Size = 5 }, new RightBorder { Val = new DocumentFormat.OpenXml.EnumValue<BorderValues>(BorderValues.BasicThinLines), Size = 5 }, new InsideHorizontalBorder { Val = new DocumentFormat.OpenXml.EnumValue<BorderValues>(BorderValues.BasicThinLines), Size = 5 }, new InsideVerticalBorder { Val = new DocumentFormat.OpenXml.EnumValue<BorderValues>(BorderValues.BasicThinLines), Size = 5 })));

TableProperties tblProp = new TableProperties();
tblProp.BiDiVisual = new BiDiVisual { Val = new EnumValue<OnOffOnlyValues> { Value = OnOffOnlyValues.On } };

How do I insert statements inside Newtonsoft.JSON codes

So basically I wanted to do:
json code,
statement,
when statement is true,some other json text
continuation of previous json code
This is currently my code and I'm looking a way to shorten it, any solutions?

I was going to add "storyboard = open9.FileName" to "new ItemChart"s but not add the storyboard line when the file address is not imported.

check the selected value in drop down list

I have the following drop down list. How can I check the selected value BEFORE saving the data into the module? I want to use the selected value in setting the values of Neighborhood's drop down list.
#Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.City, new SelectList(
new List<Object>{
new { value = "Abha", text = "Abha" },
new { value = "Al Qunfudhah", text = "Al Qunfudhah" },
new { value = "Al-Kharj", text = "Al-Kharj" },
new { value = "Al-Ahsa", text = "Al-Ahsa" },
new { value = "Buraidah", text = "Buraidah" },
new { value = "Dammam", text = "Dammam" },
new { value = "Ha'il", text = "Ha'il"},
new { value = "Hafar Al-Batin", text = "Hafar Al-Batin" },
new { value = "Jazan", text = "Jazan" },
new { value = "Jeddah", text = "Jeddah" },
new { value = "Jubail", text = "Jubail" },

#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.City)
</div>
</div>

With jQuery, you can try
$('#City').val();
If you are not using jQuery, the vanilla javascript way would be
var element = document.getElementById("City");
var strVal = element.options[element.selectedIndex].value;
