Hey all,

Id like to create a scroll group with multiple items.

class Dlg(gui.GeDialog) :  
  def CreateLayout(self) :  
      self.ScrollGroupBegin(200, c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT | c4d.BFV_SCALEFIT, c4d.SCROLLGROUP_HORIZ | c4d.SCROLLGROUP_VERT)  
      self.AddCheckbox(201, c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT | c4d.BFV_TOP, initw=200, inith=0, name="AAAAAA")  
      self.AddCheckbox(202, c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT, initw=200, inith=0, name="BBBBBB")  
      self.AddCheckbox(203, c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT, initw=200, inith=0, name="CCCCCC")  
      self.GroupEnd()  
      return True  
  
class Name(plugins.CommandData) :  
  dialog = None  
  def Execute(self, doc) :  
      if self.dialog is None: self.dialog = Dlg()  
      return self.dialog.Open(dlgtype=c4d.DLG_TYPE_ASYNC, pluginid=PLUGIN_ID, defaultw=100, defaulth=100)  
  def RestoreLayout(self, sec_ref) :  
      if self.dialog is None: self.dialog = Dlg()  
      return self.dialog.Restore(pluginid=PLUGIN_ID, secret=sec_ref)  
  
if __name__ == "__main__":  
   bmp = bitmaps.BaseBitmap()  
   dir, f = os.path.split(__file__)  
   fn = os.path.join(dir, "res", "icon.tif")  
   bmp.InitWith(fn)  
   plugins.RegisterCommandPlugin(id=PLUGIN_ID,   
                                str="Name",  
                                info=0,  
                                help="Name",   
                                dat=Name(),  
                                icon=bmp)

But there is just the first item shown in window.
What Im doing wrong?

Greetings

You have to make another group inside it.
So like that the scroll group will affect all items present in this group

  
import c4d
  
class Dlg(c4d.gui.GeDialog) :
    def CreateLayout(self) :
        if self.ScrollGroupBegin(200, c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT | c4d.BFV_SCALEFIT, c4d.SCROLLGROUP_HORIZ | c4d.SCROLLGROUP_VERT) :
            if self.GroupBegin(201,  c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT | c4d.BFV_SCALEFIT, initw=200, inith=100) :
                self.AddCheckbox(202, c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT | c4d.BFV_TOP, initw=200, inith=0, name="AAAAAA")
                self.AddCheckbox(203, c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT, initw=200, inith=0, name="BBBBBB")
                self.AddCheckbox(204, c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT, initw=200, inith=0, name="CCCCCC")
            self.GroupEnd()
        self.GroupEnd()
        return True
  
  
def main() :
    dialog = Dlg()
    dialog.Open(dlgtype=c4d.DLG_TYPE_MODAL_RESIZEABLE)
  
if __name__=='__main__':
    main()

One more thread down, gr4ph0s 

Just want to add a few links to the C++ side of things for future readers, maybe useful for Python developers as well:
In GeDialog manual this peculiarity of ScrollGroups is explicitly mentioned (not telling this to say "you should have known before", really not).
In C++ SDK examples gedialog_gadgets.cpp also contains an example on how to use ScrollGroups.
