  UNSOLVED A GetClone problem about takes

  Hi @delizade, thank you for reaching out to us. There are two problems with your code: You are using C4DAtom.GetClone() and GeListNode.InsertUnder() to add and clone a take. You should instead use TakeData.AddTake() which also provides a cloneFrom argument (Link for AddTake). You are cloning and inserting the main take, which leads in Python to hiccups. Because even when you do it correctly, like discussed in this thread via AddTake, it will insert a second "main take" into a document. I.e., one which has no "inherit from parent" and "default cemara/rendersettings" icons. According to one our devs, No. 2 seems to be a Python bug and not a limitation, we will investigate that. For now you would have to clone the two child takes under the main take manually in Python (and add a parent take beforehand if you want this structure). Because otherwise you will end up with two "root/main" takes in your document, confusing Cinema 4D ;) Cheers, Ferdinand

  @thecheesy1 said in How to Plugin Distribution: i am new user so please explain me how to ? hi and welcome to our forum. I would suggest to open your own thread for posting your own question. Please follow our guidelines to ask your question. You will also find, in our guideline, the scope of the support team. (How to distribute your plugins isn't in the scope) @zipit answer is pretty clear in my opinion and your question is so vague that we can't answer it. If you need any information, please be more precise. Cheers, Manuel

  Hi @JaronW you don't have to open the project file, but rather the solution file you find in C:\Custom\Maxon\SDK\plugins\projects\plugins.sln Cheers, R

  @Macsmiller I apologize for the late reply. Here is the plugin. glTF Importer plugin I managed to finish it and integrate it into Cinema 4D. You can follow the updates here: glTF Importer topic Maybe I am asking a question in the wrong topic - where can I find some sample code that can be used to create various import settings and write them to default presets.lib4d?

  Hi @jenandesign, thank you for sharing your little setup. I think your suggestion is great, but the problem is: We cannot handle feature requests in the SDK-team which are not directly concerned with one of the APIs. And although Cinema's old node editor is kind of "coding-related", it is in the end not directly related to one of Cinema's SDKs, which is the ground we do cover here. So I would have to ask you kindly to bring up your suggestion with Maxon's end user support, as they do handle these kind of requests. Cheers and thank you for your understanding, Ferdinand

  For some reason that I do not understand, the modifier keys did not work before, now they work. Implementation of the plugin via UserArea instead of GeDialog will be more convenient, thank you for your answers, I will study this part of the SDK further.

  thank you both @a_block for enduring my beginner questions and zipit always keeping it precise and clean ,,, I managed to get an old script to run 20 times faster by just finding junk I was able to cleanup ! Even though as a beginner I sometimes do not know what I am doing this profiling helps to find stupid code! so few more scripts to cleanup.

  Thank you for the detailed answer. and indeed, I can confirm that a plug-in (Reeper 3.2 SE) loaded as a trial for R21 is working properly. I will now contact Paul Everett directly first.
