Question about GetChangeTypeElementAddition

[Organon]

Hi everyone,

I've created an updater for rebar that uses the GetChangeTypeElementAddition change type, and it works fine for rebars created by placement and free form, but it doesn't work for rebars by sketch. I think the updater is triggered on the first transaction and not on the last one, so I can't get the rebar because it's not fully created yet.

Can anyone confirm this? Thanks.

I believe the GetChangeTypeElementAddition trigger only when the object is created as you said, on the first transaction.

Probably you need to use the GetChangeTypeGeometry, supposed gonna trigger when you change the sketch or only on the Finish sketch transaction.

See yaa

Hi @ricaun,

I need to use GetChangeTypeElementAddition but GetChangeTypeGeometry is useful to me as well, so I'll use both:

ChangeType.ConcatenateChangeTypes(Element.GetChangeTypeElementAddition(), Element.GetChangeTypeGeometry())

Thanks.
