ApplicationEvents.OnInitializeDocument Event
Parent Object: ApplicationEventsDescription
Event that is fired whenever a document is initialized. At the time this event fires, the document is not open yet. Calling methods or properties on the document will force it to open.
Remarks
The OnInitializeDocument event notifies a client when a document is being initialized. Initialization of a document is essentially a low-level open. A portion of the document is opened to determine other related files but the majority of the data is not opened and loaded. For example, when you open a drawing, the referenced documents are initialized but are not fully loaded. If you perform an action within the drawing that requires access to the data within any of the referenced documents then they are automatically fully opened at that time. API calls on a document that is only initialized will also cause the document to be fully opened. When a document is opened it is always initialized, but a document can be initialized without being opened, if the additional data in the document is not needed.Syntax
