Hi all,

Here's my problem. I know exactly an object's position (x,y,z) and model
name. Is there a way to change that object without having to launch aw_query
and deretmine that way the AW_OBJECT_NUMBER?

In other words, is there an easy way to determine AW_OBJECT_NUMBER of an
object knowing only x,y,z and model name?

Thank you.

No, it does not as far as I'm concerned. The problem is that I would need to
obtain AW_OBJECT_NUMBER with some sort of sdk function, which doesn't exist.

Anyway, I found the way to solve by problems without having to solve this
problem, eventhough it is an interesting one and worth discussing about.

Cheers, Ivan

Hi all,

I'm writing an application that should work like the standard AW Build
Inspector.

It does the following:
When a new object is added (or an existing one is changed) it checks for the
object's coordinates and size (reading object registry) and verify that the
object is completely inside the area assigned to that particular user.

Now, my problem is that I would like the object be returned to the initial
position (just like Build Inspector) if it gets positioned outside allowed
area. But I cannot see how to obtain old x,y and z coordinates since the
event AW_EVENT_OBJECT_DELETE (called when an existing object changes
position) doesn't set any old coordinates.

Any hint?

Thanks, Ivan
