Hi All

Does anyone know if Fusion supports file events ie open/new and save events.

Thanks in advance

Hello,

Unfortunately we only support documentOpened and documentOpening in Fusion 360 so far. We are planning to support more events in future releases.

It would be great if you can explain a little bit why you want the kind of events? It would help us prioritize the requirements.

Thanks,

Marshal

Hello,

We find there are some issues with documentOpening and documentOpened events. For example: the "fullPath" property of DocumentEventArgs returned the path of document local cache. I would recommend not to use them in your script for now until we solve those issues.

Thank you for understanding.

Thanks for your reply, My reason for asking is that I am planning to port my application iFilename (available for Autocad and Inventor) to Fusion. I just need to trap the event of creating a new document.

I have tried event documentOpening and it fires from the 'Data Panel' when selecting an existing file but not from the ribbon bar commands 'New Design'. Can you point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Dave

Hello Dave,

I am glad to hear DocumentOpening event works for you. Unfortunately we don't have events for "New Design" yet so far.

Thanks,

Marshal

So does this also mean that there is no event support for

New Component
Create New Drawing
Save CopyAs

all from the browser right click menu.

Nothing has changed in this area but it is something we still plan on providing. I don't have a time frame right now.
