EstMEP Fabrication API Query Selection
« on: Jan 16, 2024, 15:06:30 PM »
I'm working on an app and I need to query a selection from within the Job in EstMEP, but I haven't found a way to do so via the Fabrication API. does anyone know if there is a way to do so?
Thanks!

Not through the API itself, no. The AutoCAD API props up the Fabrication API quite a bit when it comes to stuff like this. In CAM or EST you'll need to create your own UI/mechanism to present job items for selection. You could also read the CAM/EST process memory and pull the selected items out that way.
