Hello,

I'm still confused about the GetDEnabling() thing, where we should include a call to the base-classes' method. There are several topics where the issue I'm currently having appears, and we couldn't find a solution to it.
Yannick told me he couldn't ever reproduce this error, and as soon as I wanted to show him some code that triggers it, I couldn't reproduce it either. :joy:

But now I have a piece of code that invokes the error, and I don't really understand it. Sometimes the parent-call works, and sometimes it doesn't. :angry:

This is my code so far:

    def GetDEnabling(self, op, descid, data, flags, itemdesc) :  
      rid = descid[0].id  
      value = True  
  
      # Just like the original Cube primitive, we will disable PRIM_CUBE_SEP  
      # when PRIM_CUBE_DOFILLET is active.  
      if rid == c4d.PRIM_CUBE_SEP:  
          value = not op[c4d.PRIM_CUBE_DOFILLET]  
  
      # PRIM_CUBE_FRAD and PRIM_CUBE_SUBF will be disabled when  
      # PRIM_CUBE_DOFILLET is not activeated.  
      elif rid in (c4d.PRIM_CUBE_FRAD, c4d.PRIM_CUBE_SUBF) :  
          value = op[c4d.PRIM_CUBE_DOFILLET]  
  
      # NRPRIM_DCUBE_INNERFOFFSET will be disabled when PRIM_CUBE_DOFILLET  
      # is not activated.  
      elif rid == c4d.NRPRIM_DCUBE_INNERFOFFSET:  
          value = op[c4d.PRIM_CUBE_DOFILLET]  
  
      # Otherwise, ask your parents!  
      else:  
          print "-> Parent Call for id", rid  
          value = super(DoubleCubeData, self).GetDEnabling(op, descid, data,  
                                                           flags, itemdesc)  
  
      return bool(value)

Fine so far. It used to work some minutes ago, and then suddenly, it didn't work for some elements.

I have made a screencast that is intended to show the error more precisely and understandable.
At the last part of the video, I do print "Parent call for id xx failed" when the parent-call failed. It will not be printed for some of the elements. That is because no parent-call is made for those elements (for example when I click in the "Seperate Surfaces" element or drag on the "Fillet Radius").
It seems like only the parent-call for the element that is currently being changed in the AM fails.

The video is located here.

Can someone enlighten me about the issue? :angry:

Thanks for investigating this.
Yes, I've now been able to reproduce this issue calling NodeData.GetDEnabling().
Please submit this bug.
