Catch "New Component" using a Python script

[isocam]

Can anybody help?

When creating a "New Component" in Fusion 360, is it possible to show a message box (for testing only) using the Python programming language?

I want to test this for a future idea that I have

Many thanks in advance!!!!

Hello,

Unfortunately there is no event to be fired when a new component is created. So you cannot know when a new component is created. The alternative solution would be to set a timer and check the number of components in worker thread and pop up messages once new component is added. You can probably make use of custom event to do that.
