Hello guys. Do somebody know the way I could monitor the status of an event loop of Archicad, like whether it is blocked not only by opened modal windows, but also during an element selection and other actions that lead to the event loop being blocked? Thank you for the repl...

Hello everyone. Does anyone know how can I detected whether or not an element was: "drag a copy"-ed, "rotate a copy"-ed, "mirror a copy"-ed? I need the IFC parameters copied as well, however they don't.Unfortunately, ACAPI_Element_CatchNewElement does not work. Thank you for...

Hello. I have been looking for the explanation of the error -7003 in Archicad API, however, there is no any information about that. I wonder what it means and I hope the API documentation will be enhanced and include ALL error codes. Thank you in advance for your answers!

Hello guys. Have somebody implemented a trigger system where a certain method/function will be executed if "Undo" command was used either from Archicad ui or by api? If so - how did you implement that, else what can you recommend? Context: I am trying to code a mechanism, wh...

Thank you for the responses!!! It all works. However, now I have a little another issue. When I place a wall, then perform operations on it like that: we are effectively having more walls there. However, when I tried to debug the event, the event was: "APINotifyElement_Edit"...

Yes, I found out the reason why it might return such an error; it was an incorrect path. That is pity however that there is no detailed description about ALL error codes.

GSErrCode err; IO::Location loc(""); GS::UniString ofilepathUniStr = ""; err = loc.ToPath(&ofilepathUniStr);

So I guess there are no functions to monitor undos and redos directly. However, what if I create element A, set observer to it, delete the element, and then Undo the deletion? Will the API consider this to be like "object creation" or? Will it have the same guid or different...
