The script works fine.

Hi,
What you need is to develop a CommandData plugin, the easiest plugin type.
Copy the code from this post: https://plugincafe.maxon.net/topic/6663/7259_shortcut-for-commanddata-is-not-working
Get a unique plugin ID (value for PLUGIN_ID) at this page: http://www.plugincafe.com/forum/developer.asp
Then in the Execute() function put your script's code.

Is there any documentation "step by step" to learn how programming with phyton works??
Thanks a lot for every hint

Step one, -always- use a unique plugin ID that you get from Plugin cafe (link in Yannicks' post)
Never, ever use a random or someone elses' ID or you are likely to cause corruption.
You need a separate Plugin ID for every and each plugin you make.
Python programming per se, is not Cinema specific and there are litterer tons of info
how to on the web.
Then I must agree, the first basic hurdles how to set up basic "default" plugin types
is sorely missing in the SDK. It -is- the biggest problem to get started not having any of that.
Sebastian, remember a couple of years ago the suggestion to set up this with the different
types of Faders, buttons, link fields in a default fashion? What happened ? :)

Hi Lenard,
my problem is not the solution of my problem in CINEMA.
The script recorder is a very easy tool tho find the commands.
My problems are like this:
Must commands stand every row exactly under the last row
Do i have to use 4 or 5 blanks in the struckture
Why do i always get
" def Execute(self, doc) :"
"IndentationError: unexpected indent"
My scritp works very well in Cimena als a py-Script.
What is to be done to change it to an Plugin?
I found a nice Video in Vimao about the struckture of a plugin.
But ther is nothing said about:
Where do i have place my def Funktion()...
Is there anybody out there who kmows a Book or totorial?
Is there anybody out there who could help me (I pay the translation)
Thanks to all
And: Sory for my horrible englisch

Yes, indents are paramount in py as they are used insted of brackets found in other coding types.
One usually use either a Tab step or four spaces. It is not recommended to mix what to use.
Either Tab or 4 spaces.
Check in your text application.
Any function of yours are normally placed before the Execute()

Thanks to Lennard
I learn so much this weekend.
M fault was that I used spaces and tabs mixed
But now there is a new problem:
I tryed to define a funktion.
(Funtions have to be placed before the execute. wright?)
But nothing happens when the plugin is executet.
Can somebody give me a smal advice! Please
Here is my code
Thanks to all

Hi,
It's not good practice to declare a method inside another; you should declare Test() outside of Execute(). If you only write 'Test' it will not be called, Test is just the method variable. So to call it don't forget '()'. And as it's a class method (Test( self )) self has to be added before:
self.Test()
I think you should read one of the Python tutorials or books linked in the CINEMA Python SDK documentation (see Meta information: Internet Resources at the bottom of the Index page).
