I have build a tag plug-in and would like to retrieve its settings from objects to which I've attached it. My idea was to call

  
pointerToSomeObject->GetTag(type)  

with "type" set to the ID number of my plug-in. But that doesn't find anything (result == NULL). Using the constant namend Tplugin as value of type doesn't work either. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Joern

Hi,
my solution was plugintag=BaseObject->GetTag(

Tplugin, nr

) and after that  plugintag->GetName. Then you can compare the tag name with your name.
Hope it help and isn't too late

Well, that seems a bit unsafe to me? The user might edit the name ...

I guess how to find one's "own" objects is a very basic question not only concerning tags. I'll start a new thread. See you there
