@marcin_otręba, Where are you getting your XML data from?
I tried retrieving the "formatted text" value which gives xml data for description cell, but for the position cell it only gives the value of the cell.
I'm building a program to create inspection reports based off the drawings. This means that I need to access all the dimensional data in a predictable manner especially the values and their tolerances.
So to answer your questions
1. Yes, To retrieve correct results it's imperative I know what units the dimension is displaying
2. This would affect any customer who wants to use hole tables in their drawing (which in my field is most of them)
3. As the majority of Autodesk clients don't utilize the API it's difficult to say. But it would make sense that if API access is granted to part of the program, it would stand to reason that the API should have access to everything the GUI has access to.
As the program I'm writing deals with all dimensional formats there are many more issues with API access that I'm finding, but most are solvable by one way or another. This post was only one of those issues that I was unable to solve by myself.
