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

Use the AwObject type you should collect when the object is queried, find its number and you can get the X,. Y, Z from that.

aw_object_select() might help. I think it sets the position variables.
