Right Click->Cancel event exposure

[nitinjambhale]

Hi All,

Is there is exposure for Mouse Right Click -> Cancel event from Revit API 2017 when i cancelled instead of Escape key?

For e.g. after any revit document change there is event like document_changed(),

so can i get something like document_Cancel() so that after right click->Cancel i should run my code.

I m able to track double escape but not Cancel from mouse click...

Please suggest.

Thanks,

-Nitin J.

Dear Nitin,

Nope, I am not aware of any such possibility.

If you really need it, you can probably implement that yourself using the .NET and Windows API.

I would not recommend it unless you have a really pressing need, though.

Cheers,

Jeremy

Dear Nitin,

I explain you an important characteristic for Right click cancel or double ESC. Whenever any element in your mouse to place in revit document .
Revit idling event is stop working till you do not click Cancel or Double escape. So according to your application you can create your own logic to understand when cancel is Clicked or double escape.

Note: This approach is not worked when no element is on mouse to place.

Try to use a transaction then check its status or check the ControlledApplication.FailuresProcessing handler.
