  @orestiskon You might have been confused by the advice given. Persistent data means when you want to store information into an "object", via BaseContainer (or possible other means) THEN it is advised to use a plugin ID in order to provide for a unique storage identification. With "object" being a scene file, a polygon mesh, or primitive, a material, shader, tag, ... Global variables, while potentially useful in certain cases, are not persistent. Same goes for local variables. This means, if you close and restart Cinema4D, the value will not be maintained. Unless you specifically store that value in a scene file, or separate file ... in other words: making it persistent. I guess this whole discussion might better be located in the "General programming & plugin discussions".

  Being the SDK formerly known as Melange renamed in Cineware SDK, the category hosting the related discussion has been renamed accordingly. Cheers, MAXON's SDK Team

  R20 Python Hello, thanks in advance for the help! I am trying to access point data stored in the CAMorphNode and specifically trying to read/write which vertex in the upstream PointObject each deformed point is "attached" to. The only data I can seem to extract from the CAMorphNode's pointdata is the position itself. There is no index reference to the PointObject that I can see? And the morphnode only seems to store points that have changed rather than all of the vertices. Example is simple: Cube "made editable" (into a PointObject) w/ pose morph tag attached. On the first pose (after base) there is only a single vertex/corner moved out of place. PointObject.GetPointCount() returns 8 PointObject > CAPoseMorphTag > CAMorph.GetFirst() > CAMorphNode.GetPointCount() returns 1 CAMorphNode.GetPoint(0) only returns the point vector for the moved corner instead of all 8 points, but I can't figure out which corner that is? Surely the data is in there somewhere, maybe just not accessible in Python? I hope I am missing something. Thanks in advance!

I would like to save some info to an Annotation tag, but only right before the user saves the document. Tried to put it in Message() but couldn't figure out if Message can stand by itself or if it has to be in a NodeData class? class SampleClass(plugins.NodeData) :     def Message(self, node, type, data) :         if type == c4d.MSG_DOCUMENTINFO:             if data['type'] == c4d.MSG_DOCUMENTINFO_TYPE_SAVE_BEFORE:                 print "Document is about to save"                 return True             return True Thanks
