I am wondering why none of my functions do what they are supposed to. The DoCOmmand Function is supposed to subdivide the currently active object, when the command button is clocked, and the draw() is supposed to draw a square polygon if the check box named SHOW_PLANE is checked. Yet nothing is doing what I expect it to.

Here is the code for my entire .cpp file. Does anyone see any reason why my code isn't doing anything?

1. DoCommand() already exists as a virtual function. It is called explicitly by SendModelingCommand(). I would rename the function if you are calling it from Message() to avoid issues.

2. The edgecuttool example calls the modeling function from MouseInput(). Of course, this will depend upon what you are doing. If your tool doesn't require mouse input, then it doesn't need to do that there.

3. You are trying to store values in 'bc' attached to mdat but both of these are local variables and go away as soon as Message() exits. If you want to retain the values stored in 'bc', you will need to make it a member of your SculptTool class.

4. Call this at the end of your InitDefaultSettings() :
DescriptionToolData::InitDefaultSettings(doc,data);
   Call this at the end of your GetDEnabling() :
return DescriptionToolData::GetDEnabling(doc,data,id,t_data,flags,itemdesc);

5. Why are you getting your tool's description values from doc->GetDataInstance() in Draw()? The BaseContainer is sent as 'data'.

so for you third point.

I should add :

`

to the SculptTool Class?

okay got the draw plane to work by changing everything to data.

but it only refreshes if I make a change to the viewport, like zoom in or something. How can I make the viewport update after the draw() code is executed?

Thanks,

Okay here's the code now..   The draw() function works great now..

The Subdivide() function previously the DoCommand () still does nothing.

Any thoughts?

You'll have to remove the definition of ModelCommandData mdat and BaseContainer bc from Message(). Local variables always override more global variables.

Do you actually get the GePrint() in Message() when the button is clicked?

Seems like it's running the code in Subdivide() but it's not effecting the object.

Yeah, I was going to mention that the "End of Subdivide" would never print. :)

The only thing that I can think of is that the object isn't really a Polygon object. For something like subdivision it must be. But if it is, then I'm at a loss. One thing to check is if SendModelingCommand() is succeeding or failing (if (!SendModelingCommand(...)). Another is to verify that the document is not a clone. Many times, Cinema 4D passes a clone of the document (like for rendering or generator plugins). I couldn't imagine this for a tool but best to verify, verify, verify!

But still it does not subdivide the current polygon object in the scene.

Anyone know why this is? SEE above for other code in the plugin.

Now when I click the button, the object subdivides.
but I have no control over the attributes.

When I try to add in the following.

\>       mdat.bc->SetReal(MDATA_SUBDIVIDE_ANGLE, mdat.bc->GetReal(MAX_ANGLE)); //Set Maxiumum Angle  
\>

`

It won't recognize the attributes and won't subdivide at all. Must be something in the way I am using the base container.   Any thoughts about this? Anyone know how I could edit the first code to be able to adjust subdivision attributes from the NUM_SUBDIVISIONS long and the MAX_ANGLE real?

Thanks,

~Shawn

Don't pass the BaseContainder from Message() to mdat.

Do something like this:

BaseContainer bc;
bc.SetLong(MDATA_SUBDIVIDE_SUB, data.GetLong(NUM_SUBDIVISIONS));
bc.SetReal(MDATA_SUBDIVIDE_ANGLE,data.GetReal(MDATA_SUBDIVIDE_ANGLE));
ModelingCommandData mdat;
mdat.doc = doc;
mdat.bc = &bc;
mdat.op = op; //pass the pointer to the object
SendModelingCommand(MCOMMAND_SUBDIVIDE, cd));
