class as its parent was updated. onCloned(_context: IModelCloneContext, _sourceProps: ElementProps, _targetProps: ElementProps): void ProtectedStatic PhysicalType Called during the iModel transformation process after an Element from the source iModel was cloned for the target iModel. onDelete(arg: OnElementIdArg): void ProtectedStatic PhysicalType Called before an Element is deleted. onDeleted(_arg: OnElementIdArg): void ProtectedStatic PhysicalType Called after an Element was deleted. onInsert(arg: OnElementPropsArg): void ProtectedStatic PhysicalType Called before a new Element
