Hi,

I'm trying to get the polygons that are attached to point index[1] of  a cube. But I can't figure out how to instantiate the Neighbor class.

Does anyone have an example of this?

The neighbor class contains a Init method. In combination with Neighbor.GetPointPolys( pnt ) you san get the neighbor polygons.

And maybe this Open Source plugin helps you.

Thanks nux.
That's exactly what I needed. 🍺

This is an example of all I was trying to do with it:

import c4d  
from c4d import gui,utils  
  
def main() :  
    
  obj = doc.GetActiveObject()  
  AllPoints = obj.GetPointS() # Gets all the points   
  PointIndex = AllPoints.Select(1) # Gets point index #1   
  c4d.EventAdd()    
  nb = utils.Neighbor() # Assigns neighbor to a variable  
  nb.Init(obj) # Instantiates the neighbor class   
  
  selected = nb.GetPointPolys(PointIndex) # Gets the id's of those neighboring polygons  
  print selected  
    
  c4d.EventAdd()  
  
  
if __name__=='__main__':  
  main()  

I'm sure the SDK about this makes sense to people with years of coding experience. But I couldn't figure out what it was was trying to tell me on how to use this class.

Thanks a lot for the for the example file.

In my opinion, the Init() function is described very well.
I started Coffee 3 months ago and Python about 1 month ago. 🙂

I'm sure it is.
But what do you do if you suck at reading SDK's. And can't find any tutorials to teach you how to read them?

Welcome to my world.

At the beginning I really didn't understand anything in SDK's. But it became easier by time.

But I sometimes don't understand SDKs, too, since the entries are not always that senseful.
