Return skins of walls

Good day everyone, I have a problem with returning a data about the skins of a wall in Archicad.

I have checked these links but they didn't give me much of information:

https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Archicad-C-API/How-to-get-wall-materials-and-thicknesses-using-A...


I wonder if there is a pseudo code of how the information about the skins of the wall could be extracted. I am a bit unsure of how the attributes and data are stored at backed of Archicad, soooo... yeah.

Any help will be appreciated!

Thank you very much for the hints. I also wonder if there is somewhere an array of names of those skins that I could also return.

Thank you again!

You can get the index of each skin's building material from API_CWallComponent data, then call ACAPI_Attribute_Get() function to have the name of building material using the index.

HTH.

Didn't find the answer?
