Hello.
First, I create an object element and save project.
Then I reopen the project, delete the element and recreate it.
But the element is not created at the same point.
element.pos parameter is same.
element.pos is (200719367, 453674635, 0).
position in archicad is (401585515, 907246085, 0).
when I change element.pos to (0,0,0), position in archicad is (200866149, 453571450, 0)
I think the element's origin is changed.
I have to check where?

Hi.
I think you will also need to look at ACAPI_ProjectSetting_GetOffset and take the result API_Coord into account when setting the element.pos
