Hi,
Is there anybody who knows if and how, one can control the c4d transport system from C++. (play,stop, rewind, etc)
Can't find a clue.
Maybe by hotkey control? And how can that be done?
Simulate keyboard input?
And if it cannot be done, why is it left out of the API Mikael?.  ) :
Anyone tried a special mouse driver?Is there any information about that?
With regards,

You can do it with: (In R9 and above. In previous versions you had to use SendCoreMessage().)

    
    
    const LONG IDM_PLAY_FORWARDS = 12412;  
    CallCommand(IDM_PLAY_FORWARDS);

Hi again Mikael,
works fine for PLAY_BACKARDS,PLAY_FORWARDS, U_STOP, FRAME_LAST, FRAME_NEXT.
But: CallCommand(IDM_GOTOFRAME) shows a popup, wich i don't want.
How is the framenumber parameter implemented otherwise ?
And: is there a gotostart and/or a gotoend call?
regards,

you don´t need a callcommand for this, simply use
document->SetTime()

3DD, does the document->SetTime() actually set the document editor and scrub to the BaseTime value? I've used this feature (including AnimateObject()) for doing some validation work, but not for actual user-responsive feedback display.

Just curious as to whether or not it gives a sort of 'programmatic' scrub capability.

P.S.: Any progress on the UVWs? Hoping that David provided successful information - I'm not very experienced with this so was groping for solutions.

SetTime changes the actual document time and will affect the scene. If you need to change it just make sure to change it back before you exit back to CINEMA otherwise some users might not appreciate having their time moved.
The current document time can be very important for time based processing (such as that done by cloth/dynamics etc.) so check that your processing doesn't cause any problems for these (and other time based stuff like particles, XPresso etc.). Provided other areas don't get chance to update before you put the old time back you should be ok.

yes, I worked it out. Found lots of information for calculating the bary coords in the net.
