Find in Diagram

[neil_albiston]

Is there an efficient way to do a script version of the Element --> Find In Diagrams menu item?

So far the only option I've found is to check the Ids of every diagram object in every diagram. Not ideal.

Basically I want to check an element is not included in any  diagrams before it is deleted. Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance,

Neil

Neil,

In that case I'd use SQL. Something like

Code: [Select]

myRepository.SQLQuery("select Diagram_ID from t_diagramobjects where Object_ID = " + myObjectID.ToString());Should give you diagramID's of all diagrams using this object in a fraction of a second.

Thank you Geert.
Yet again one of your answers has solved my problem and opened up an entire undocumented chapter of possibilities.

Honestly, I've been thinking about that, but then again I don't seem to find the time.
Maybe I could start with some EA related blog posts...
