This is more than likely an internal method only, especially being within operatingsystem.h and being a pointer to a method and not a method itself (probably so that it can be used to access an array of methods for adding individual Gadget types to a dialog).

That's about all that I can tell you.

Thx for your answer kuro ^_^,
but I think that this "command / pointer" it's interesting & powerful.
Look in the example "asynctest.cpp": addgadget puts the gadget in the strange position .... if u prove to "comment" this C4DOS.cd(...) the addcheckbox will be in another position ....
I NOT found in the old HELP releases how workin' ...
I hope that any strong Maxon programmer's will knows ....
Bye kuro ^_^

I don't really see what is so 'powerful' about it. It adds the check box to the menubar. Okay, interesting.

It may prove useful for nonstandard layouts, but I haven't seen any comments on this. The most probable reason for not being in the HELP is that it is not a feature expected to be used by plugin developers. Most of the time anything that starts with C4DOS is discouraged as this is the lowest level of the SDK (and Cinema 4D). It may change without notice and you'd be screwed if it did! Fair warning.

Take care, Korki!

Infact ... put somethink in toolbar ! @[email protected]
Dear kuro ... I'll make some experiment (with carefull be sure...) I'm very curious !
If u think that it's possible to manager the toolbar more than Help documentation tell us .... (Everybody simply resolves any problems for add a submenus in toolbar or add commands and so on).
Only if I understand that C4D minds for par1, par2, ecc.....
