Hello,
I like to know how I can switch the layout with the CallCommand(56000).
My intention is to switch maybe from start layout to animation layout or an own layout definition per plugin.
Thanks

Hi.
I use python script for this:
import c4d, os
from c4d import gui, documents
#Welcome to the world of Python
def main() :
c4d.documents.LoadFile(c4d.storage.GeGetC4DPath(c4d.C4D_PATH_LIBRARY_USER)+os.sep+"layout"+os.sep+"layoutname.l4d")
if __name__=='__main__':
main()
Cheers
Phil

Oh thanks, it's working.
One question, it's possible to start an python script automatically if Cinema4d started?

Hi Marky,
I think you could use -layout command line argument.
This command lets you load a specific layout when starting CINEMA 4D.

Afaik, there is (or can be) a startup.py in the user preferences folder, is that correct?

A special script python_init.py can be defined in {USER_FOLDER}/prefs/python to execute some Python code on startup of CINEMA 4D before any other Python stuff is loaded.
