How can I select some tool?
And how to get its container?
For example I want to make a command that select the Knife tool and set its Mode to "plane" and Plane to "X-Y".

Sounds like you'll need to use FindPlugin(ID, C4DPL_TOOL) and then get the BaseContainer using GetDataInstance(), for instance. :)
The hard part is knowing the ID and getting the specific Attribute Manager/Active Tool settings. These should be stored somewhere in the Resource folder (_api or res or modules possibly).

When the tool is selected, it´s descriptions get display in the AM automatically! Reshowing it, is simply reactivating the tool.
Working on a tool for your edge slide pluggy? ;)
Keep it up.

The user selects it. :-) Or do you need this for something different? Maybe it would be better to explain why you want to select a tool yourself?
Anyway, select a tool by this: doc->SetAction(PLUGINID_OF_TOOLPLUGIN);
If this doesn´t work, try a GeSyncMessage(EVMSG_TOOLCHANGED); //or another message type
So, what plug are you workin on?
Hope that helps

It is for some commands I need to have, and I want to write it on c++ not on COFFEE :)
And for one tool ... it is long to explain, you will see it ;)
Thank you very much ! It is just I looked for !
