Hello,

right now I am working on GUI (C4D R13) but have one Problem than I can not solve.

Something like this is in the Code:

  
GroupBegin(ID_SOMETHING, BFH_SCALEFIT | BFV_SCALEFIT, 1, 0, "Name", BFV_BORDERGROUP_FOLD);  
{  
AddUserArea(ID_SOMETHING_ELSE,BFH_SCALEFIT, 100 , 100);  
}  
GroupEnd();  

The Problem is if the User close this Folding Group it just disappear

I have found the same problem in plugincafe but without any solution.
BFV_BORDERGROUP_FOLD

thanks
Remo

I had this problem too with my IvyGrower plugin and could not find a solution so I just made the groups non-foldable.  Seems to be a bug that creeped into R13 SDK.

Thank you for the answer Robert !

Unfortunately non-foldable at all is not well for my purpose because of used GUI space ...

Unless you need something specific from the R13 SDK, you could always just build with the R12 SDK (there may be exceptions, but most R12 plugins work fine with R13).  Not ideal, but a potential work-around.

Doesn't work.  The bug shows up the same in R12 plugins running in R13 as R13 plugins.

One more try to push this to the foreground... Maxon seems so responsive about everything else- why has BFV_BORDERGROUP_FOLD been ignored?

This folding bug has plagued our plugin for 1.5 years now. It came in r13 and still exists in r14.

Here is a demo:

Sebastian at Maxon noted that this was not in Python, but deeper in the core API and submitted a bug ticket the first week r13 came out which was great, but we have not yet heard of any solution or seen a resolution- when r14 came out, the problem persisted.

I really hope someone can find a workaround or encourage Maxon to post a fix!
Thanks

The bug won't be fixed for R13 or R14, you can be very sure about that.
You could still pack your complete dialog into a scroll-group. This would
not make it more overviewable, but allows you to have as many widgets
as you want without exceeding the screen-size.

It is possible using HideElement() and a custom User area or button. See
