Check out DispatchWithEvents

 

>>> import win32com.client

>>> help(win32com.client.DispatchWithEvents)

Subject: [python-win32] COM - respond to other application's event

Hello group,

I'm a beginner learning Python.  Trying to automate AutoCAD.  What I wanted to know is how to receive event fired by the AutoCAD application.  When a drawing opening process is done, the application will fire an event EndOpen.  In VBA, I know how to catch and respond to this event.  But do not know how to accomplish it with Python. 

import win32com.client
acad = win32com.client.Dispatch("AutoCAD.Application")
acad.Visible = True
acad.WindowState = 3
doc = acad.Documents.Open(r"C:\Drawings\test.dwg")
print ("Drawing opened.")

Thanks for your time and help,
