Create New Project using ACAPI_ProjectOperation_NewProject

kency — Tue, 17 Sep 2024 09:24:55 GMT

Hello all,

I was trying to create a new project when the add-on gets triggered and I saw the function

ACAPI_ProjectOperation_NewProject which opens a new project. But I would like to also save the existing project before opening a new project. I tried the below code:

GSErrCode CreateNewProject() { API_NewProjectPars npp = {}; npp.newAndReset = true; npp.enableSaveAlert = true; GSErrCode err = ACAPI_ProjectOperation_NewProject (&npp); return err; }

In spite of having the enableSaveAlert to true, it did not give me any alert. Also, I had tried the

ACAPI_ProjectOperation_Save() function as well. But this also did not Save anything.

Is my expectation right for these functions/params? Or is there any other way through which we can do a Save of the existing project and post that open a new project?

Notes:

Tried on MacOS(Intel)

Archicad 27 and on 25 with the ACAPI_Automate()

Please make sure you are not using the DEMO version of Archicad. The DEMO version can't save files.

Yes, @Viktor Kovacs tried on the licensed version of Archicad. Missed out on mentioning the same.
