Is there any way to retrieve all objects inside the zone? thanks.

What I would do is use the coordinates of the zone and plug it in on with ACAPI_Selection_SetMarquee. Then call ACAPI_Selection_Get to get all elements then filter them by type.

Hi,

There's a function called ACAPI_Element_GetRelations(), pass the zone's GUID in the first parameter, API_ObjectID in the second, and a pointer to an API_RoomRelation structure in the third -- this struct will be filled in with the containment information.

Cheers, Akos
