    Hi,

    I try to get a tag from an object. It's not a standard tag, but a plugin tag I wrote myself.

    I try to do it like this, using the tag's plugin ID:

    > BaseTag \*mytag = op->GetTag(123456);

    But I always get NULL.

    If I try (just for fun) to get a standard tag, it works fine:

    > BaseTag \*mytag = op->GetTag(Tphong);

    Am I doing something wrong? Is it an SDK bug? Can I just get standard tags with GetTag()? How can I solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance!

    Greetings,
    Jack

    OK, forget it ;-)

    I should not have mistyped the plugin id when registering the tag. Everything works now.

    Cheers,

    I was going to say that I use the op->GetTag(PLUGINID) method all of the time and it always works. Glad you sorted it! :)
