How to get Signal coordinates via "API"?

[rhesusminus]

I need to to the the coordinates for the connection points (X??TERM?? attributes) for the signals I have spread around my project.

Can't find anything in the API documentation, and looking in the project scratch database, I only find connection point data for schematic components. Not for signals, not even for terminals.

Is there any way to find this information? Without actually opening each drawing with a signal in it (I can find what drawings they are in in the SIG-table of the project scratch database) and "scan" them?

Trond Hasse Lie,

there are no published APIs that would do this. And you are right, the information is not in the project database. I think there is a way this can be done using some of the internal calls AutoCAD Electrical uses to get information from a drawing that may not be open or active. This will probably take some back and forth and might be better done through email. If you want to give this a try let me know at pat.murnen@autodesk.com. Would be a nice little challenge and maybe we can make it generic enough to get this information for other components.
