  Another solution, in your specific scenario, where you don't really need to access a method but want to trigger the GeDialog in some way, is to message the dialog as discussed here. In short: your treeview sends a message, and the dialog reacts to the message by performing the refresh layout.

  Python - InExcludeData initialization problem

  Hi, @SolarPH said in Python - InExcludeData initialization problem: Now I know that initializing the InExcludeData is not InExcludeData.__init__ and the correct way was c4d.InExcludeData(), ... I am not quite sure how you did mean this, but InExcludeData.__init__ is one of the methods called when you invoke c4d.InExcludeData(). Like all double underscore methods __init__ implements an operator, in that case the construction operator. Invoking SomeClass() will first call the constructor SomeClass.__new__ and after that the initialisator SomeClass.__init__. Due to the fact that __new__ only rarely has to be implemented explicitly and because people are accustomed to talking about constructor functions, __init__ is also often called a constructor, while technically it is just the initialisator. A prime example would be both the InExcludeData documentation and my example code, which both talk about a copy constructor, but are actually referring to __init__ and not __new__. Cheers, zipit

  @PluginStudent said in Remove object from layer: op[c4d.ID_LAYER_LINK] = None op[c4d.ID_LAYER_LINK] = None c4d.EventAdd() did it! Thanks! As you can tell from my previous code, I am hacking my way through Python. If you saw the rest of it, you would probably have to sit down and maybe drink a Gatorade. Or something stronger. :)

  Hi and welcome to our forum, For your next threads, please help us keeping things organised and clean. I know it's not your priority but it really simplify our work here. Q&A New Functionality. How to Post Questions especially the tagging part. I've added the tags and marked this thread as a question so when you considered it as solved, please change the state :) About the IDs, the best/easiest way to find them is the Customize Commands DialogBox inside Cinema 4D. (shift F12). When you select a command at the bottom right, you have the ID. Cheers, Manuel

  hi, there's nothing more to do in R21/S22, you should maybe post your project to see if there's something wrong. Cheers Manuel

  Hi @C4DS, just to confirm that there is nothing built-in Cinema 4D. For python most of the library in the end only reroutes through OS call and does have a system dependant call, so you will probably end with something like that also in C++. Cheers, Maxime.

  Hi Manuel and @rb_rodrigo, Many thanks for the tips about the Python console and help with the code. I'm a beginner (not even that!) in scripting, so much appreciated. It works as expected now! Cheers, Frederik

  Hi @Muokkaa, unfortunately, I wasn't able to reproduce, so I suggest you send a bug report with a file to the user support https://support.maxon.net/open.php. This forum is about SDK and plugin development for Cinema 4D, no general Cinema 4D support. Cheers, Maxime.

  Hi, @lasselauch as a rule of thumb with Python2.7 always store data as a Unicode string. Control your IO which means, for each, Input make sure you know the encoding in all cases by always calling .decode('utf-8') so you are sure to store a Unicode value and get an error if something went wrong at a loading time. Then output the content according to your need some need ASCII, some can work with unicode, but do the conversion on the fly, don't touch you stored Unicode data. For the francophone people, there is this fabulous article about unicode Encoding in Python for English I guess the best I found on this topic is A Guide to Unicode, UTF-8, and Strings in Python. Cheers, Maxime.
