    Dear Python Experts.

    I´ve made a plugin which execute the GUI ShowPopUpDialog and populate it with all layer names in the current document. When a names is pressed, the selected objects are added to that layer.

    This works perfect, but i would like to get the layer color indicator into the popup aswell.

    Is this even possible with the gui.showpopupdialog or do i need to go the GeDialog way?

    If i have to go the GeDialog way, can someone push me in the right direction to start of such a custom gui? :)

    Looking forward to hear from you !

    Best Regards

    Hello,

    you can use an icon in the popup menu. Using "& i....&" you can define an icon id that is used for that element:

      
menu.SetString(c4d.FIRST_POPUP_ID+99,"&i5119&Something")

    So you could create preview icons and register them using RegisterIcon(). But I'm not sure if this is a good workflow.

    If you want to draw something in a GeDialog you may use a GeUserArea. There you can draw whatever you want. You find some code that shows how to use that class in the Py-MemoryViewer.pyp example.

    Hello,

    when you call RegisterIcon() you register a bitmap. You can fill this bitmap any way you like.

    I try the code of

    menu.SetString(19, '&d&i5119& '+group.GetName());
    menu.SetString(0, "" )
    menu.SetString(31, 'select')

    - but I can`t get a disable menu item and a icon

    Hello,

    to disable a menu element simply add "&d&":

      
menu.SetString(c4d.FIRST_POPUP_ID+100,"&i5150&Something Else &d&")

    best wishes,

    Hi Sebastian

    I´m having trouble finding the right code-snippet for filling a bitmap in python.
    So far i managed i attach my custom icon to every entry in my popup dialog, but after looking thru the bitmap class, i can´t seem to find anything useful.

    Hello,

    you can set the data of a bitmap using BaseBitmap.SetPixel(). An example can be found in SculptSaveMask.pyp.

    A little more comfortable way of filling a bitmap would be to use the GeClipMap class.

      
geClipMap = c4d.bitmaps.GeClipMap()  
geClipMap.Init(800,600,32)  
  
geClipMap.BeginDraw()  
  
geClipMap.SetColor(255,0,0)  
geClipMap.FillRect(0,0,800,600)  
  
geClipMap.EndDraw()  
  
bitmap = geClipMap.GetBitmap()  
  
filename = c4d.storage.SaveDialog(title="Save image")  
bitmap.Save(filename,c4d.FILTER_TIF)
