File -> Interoperability -> Import Point Clouds...

 

I want to catch event when merge file or import point clouds.

 

Is there any ACAPI_Notification function to catch that?

 

If it is impossible, how can I merge file and point cloud using api?

 

I need element guids when file merged.

Hi!

I'm not sure but it might be possible to catch the point cloud as a new element on import. I don't have time to test so I can only give you the link to the command to try for yourself: https://graphisoft.github.io/archicad-api-devkit/group___element.html#gaa640b4d073a2e78c2eb83fe351de...
Maybe that could help.

For catching merged files I don't have an idea right now.

 

Best,
