how do i get grid name and position in model?

Hi.

I want to get Grid Name and Position Information.

i use ACAPI_LibraryPart_GetActParameters, but it show only "AC_MarkerText_1"'s default value. (Example X1)

I would appreciate any help you can give me.

I use Archicad 27 API

API_GetParamsType getParams; BNZeroMemory(&getParams, sizeof(API_GetParamsType)); err = ACAPI_LibraryPart_GetActParameters(&getParams); if (err == NoError) { for (Int32 i = 0; i < BMGetHandleSize((GSHandle)getParams.params) / sizeof(API_AddParType); ++i) { const API_AddParType& param = (*getParams.params)[i]; if (strcmp(param.name, "AC_MarkerText_1") == 0) { //info.markerText = reinterpret_cast<const char*>(param.value.uStr); info.markerText = GS::UniString(param.value.uStr).ToCStr().Get(); DBPrintf("Marker Text: %s\n", info.markerText.c_str()); break; } } }

Hi, I'd suggest you to use ACAPI_Element_GetMemo() to get "AC_MarkerText_1" and "AC_Length" values from memo.params in this case.

I think the position information would be element.object.pos and the end node of

x = element.object.pos.x + (value of "AC_Length") * cos(element.object.angle)

y = element.object.pos.y + (value of "AC_Length") * sin(element.object.angle)

HTH.
