Shadow operations

Hi,

Can i create components, occurences and bodies in the background so that the browser and view is not affected to that?

The API was designed to allow you to create documents invisibly so you wouldn't see anything in the UI as you created or modified the document.  That's the reason for the visible argument in the add and open methods of the Documents object.  However, the Fusion 360 core doesn't yet support this so you have to always create or open them visibly.  Hopefully in the future we'll be able to enable this in the API.
