Hello the forum![Smile]()
I download library parts and insert them in Archicad projects.
To do the job correctly i need to know what is exactly the library part.
(a stair, a window, a door, a wall...)
For the moment i have this info in xml side-car files so i know exactly the type of the library part. I can fill in the "element.header.typeID" and "element.header.variationID" based on the data i have in my XML side-car.
But...
For some of my library parts i don't have the XML data so i don't know the type of the libpart.
How can i find "element.header.typeID" and "element.header.variationID" from a API_LibPart ?
I have the "API_LibTypeID" but this is not enough. By example, i can't know that a libpart is a "stair" by example.
