Add 'on delete parameter' event to API

Add 'on delete parameter' event to API

Currently Inventor's API does not have an event that will throw when a parameter is deleted. There are events for creating and editing parameters: OnNewParameter and OnParameterChange, but none that allow the explicit deletion of a parameter to be known. Accessing deleted parameters has to be done through several other events since there is no one event to cover this action. Having access to this event would allow for simpler yet more robust programs that make use of Inventor's parameter system.

Thanks for posting, this is very needed. Consider voting for similar idea here: API/Add-Ins: OnPropertyChange event.

Glad I could draw attention to it. I agree that there should be a way for the API to pass which property was changed. Of course for now we can just monitor for a change in properties and then check each one to see which was changed. Not very efficient but better than nothing.
