New property for existing errors

New property for existing errors

The API has an ErrorManager object.

With this object, it is possible to record errors and warnings which occur in my own transactions.

Unfortunately, no existing errors (or warnings) are respected here.

However, in some situations this would be very necessary (for example, design checking tools).

 

Please add a new property to get all errors and warnings (new and existing ones).

This property could (or should) be at document level, similar to the RequiresUpdate property.

Something like: Document.HasErrors & Document.HasWarnings would be useful.

I've wanted the ability to check for existing errors in drawings since 2014, so I support this idea. I'd personally use this in my mass printing and exporting scripts to skip and log drawings that need fixed.

There is a simple work around in the thread I posted above. It's probably not a replacement for this idea post but it does what I'm looking for.
