3D Model update status?

Hi, I have a plugin where I'm exporting a 3D model into my own file format. So I'm basically changing the database and window to the 3D model and thereafter I loop through the list of model elements and extract geometry and properties.

However, setting the database and window to the 3D model doesn't update the entire model. Sometimes the element count for the model is simply lower, when extracting the geometry, because it is not fully updated.

So my Archicad API related questions are:
- Is there a way to retrieve an update status for a 3D model? (So that I know whether it is fully updated or not, before extracting the geometry)
- Is there a way to fully update a 3D model?

ISSUE FIXED. I was messing up the views in my plugin and simple got another view than what I was expecting.
