Hi all!
I've a problem described in depth in this discussion: https://forum.bricsys.com/discussion/36596/c-understand-if-a-document-is-modified-or-not#latest

Can you answer to my two questions?

T&R,

    You can mark a document as changed - just change it :)))) For example, change any system variable.
    However, there is no way you can uncheck the change. There is no such API and should not be. Just save the drawing.

    There is the DBMOD system variable (per database/document), a bit-coded flag, which indicates whether & what has been modified in the database/drawing;
    so inspecting DBMOD should be ok ?
    many greetings !

    The problem is that writing (adding) a new property programmatically doesn't change the document, while doing the same thing by GUI does.

    @Torsten Moses
    Your hint works when you work with the GUI. That is, adding (or changing) a custom property thru GUI checks the Database variable modified box in the Modification Status table (Setting\Settings). However, it doesn't when doing the same working with API.

    Hello, Piero,
    I see ... have you tried latest V21.1.07 (English version is available yet) ... I recall that an issue with the drawing properties had been fixed.
    If still present, then it is best to create a SupportRequest (but tracker ticket), so that we have it in our defects database, and we will work to get this fixed.
    many greetings !

    Thanks for your reply.
    Unfortunately I tested it with V21.1.06.
    So, next Monday I'll download #07 version, test it again and let you know. In case, I'll open a tracker ticket.
