SOLVED GetContour and GetVirtualObjects in one Plugin

I got a plugin which returns, base on its settings a mesh or a spline. If i create an instance from my plugin using only GetVirtualObjects the Instance of my spline doesn't work.

so is there a way to use both in one plugin?

Hi @pyr first of all, in Cinema 4D there is no object that behaves like that. So it's not officially supported but you can get it to work.

With that's said I would like to ask for more information.

• Do you need input objects?
• Should your object be considered as a spline object or only returning a spline is enough (aka returning a spline into a null)?

Note that few examples in the GitHub repository can help you:

• double_circle, outputs a spline, like a circle spine.
• osffset_y_spline, offsets a spline, based on another input spline.
• rounded_tube, creates an object like the cube object.

Cheers,
Maxime.

@pyr You can have both. GetVirtualObjects() is called first, and if you return nullptr GetContour() is called.

But you need to register your object with OBJECT_GENERATOR | OBJECT_ISSPLINE.

@rsodre works flawless!
