Hi there,
i am facing a problem for quite a while now, not being able to solve. I have a generator plugin and a channelshader plugin, where i want to use the generated objects position to get represented by some color value.
if the child object is a PolygonObject it works like i want it, but if it is a parametric object, for example a cube, it doesnt work. i tried ToPoly, static_cast<PolygonObject*> but this doesnt help..

any ideas?
i tried this, too, but it just crashes cinema
parent = static_cast <PolygonObject*>((robj->link)->GetClone(0L,NULL));
thanks for your help,
cheers,
