So I've read this:
http://thebuildingcoder.typepad.com/blog/2013/03/determining-purgeable-elements.html
and this:
http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-api/writing-a-purge-utility/m-p/2735359/highlight/true#M1726
and they say that triggering the "Purge Unused" button under the "Manage" tab via code isn't possible and that you have to write your own code to handle the not so small task of doing it manually.
(this button)
I also noted that both those posts are from around 3 years ago. I was wondering if there was an update on this. I can't find an API specific road map for features with a cursory google search, anyone know if there is one?
I don't want to rewrite code that already exists, especially when it sounds like it's a sizeable project in its own right! It's tantalizingly out of reach and replicating it would feel like time wasted.
Is it already in the API and I just can't find it? Are there plans to put it into the API if not? Should I wait for it to turn up in the API or grit my teeth and code my own solution? Should I just split my program and demand people press the button manually in the worst UX since MS-DOS?
Solved! Go to Solution.
