How to get a merged part after merging with some parts?

Soulless_ik — Tue, 13 Feb 2018 01:15:39 GMT

I have merged some parts with this code.

var findParts = PartUtils.FindMergeableClusters(Doc, PartIDs);

findParts.ToList().ForEach(p =>
{
if (p.Count == 1) return;
PartUtils.CreateMergedPart(Doc, p);
});

But output of 'PartUtils.CreateMergedPart' is not a Part. It's a 'PartMaker'

I need a part output.

Is there any way to get a merged part object?

Thank you.

You can subscribe to the DocumentChanged event just before callingCreateMergedPart, and unsubscribe just afterwards:

That will tell you all the element ids added to the database during the call.

This is demonstrated here:
