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,
Jack

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!
