Hey everyone.. I have successfully created an xpresso node that does absolutely nothing right now.. WOO HOO! And... when I register it using `ID_GV_OPGROUP_TYPE_GENERAL and ``ID_GV_OPCLASS_TYPE_GENERAL it of course as you would expect shows up under the General xpresso menu...Now I want to create my own group so that when the user right clicks on the Graph View they see my group under the list.
I have been checking out the following thread to help solve this problem
Based on that thread I have come up with the following code
const LONG ID_MYGROUP_GV_OPGROUP = 1026834; const LONG ID_``MYCLASS``_GV_OPCLASS = 1026835; static const String* GetMyClassName(){ static String myclass("My Class"); return &myclass; } static const String* GetMyGroupName(){ static String mygroup("My Group"); return &mygroup; } Bool RegisterMyNode(void){ static GV_OPCLASS_HANDLER myClass; ``myClass``.class_id = ID_MYCLASS_GV_OPCLASS; ``myClass``.GetName = GetMyClassName; if (!GvRegisterOpClassType(&myClass, sizeof(myClass))) return FALSE; static GV_OPGROUP_HANDLER myGroup; myGroup.group_id = ID_MYGROUP_GV_OPGROUP; myGroup.GetName = GetMyGroupName; if (!GvRegisterOpGroupType(&myGroup, sizeof(myGroup))) return FALSE;; return GvRegisterOperatorPlugin(ID_MY_NODE, "``MyNode``", PLUGINFLAG_SMALLNODE, ``MyNode``::Alloc, "``MyNode``", 0, ID_MYCLASS_GV_OPCLASS, ID_MYGROUP_GV_OPGROUP, ID_GV_IGNORE_OWNER, AutoBitmap("MyNode.tif")); }Now, when I add this code, it doesn't show up anywhere in the Graph View. Am I doing something the wrong way. I'm sure it's obvious that I don't fully understand what I am doing here.. Any help you could offer would be great.
Thanks,,
Shawn

okay I solved the problem. Apparently you need the icon for the node to show up, ;)
