Hi everyone,
can anyone please tell me if it's possible to save 'projection paint layer' to specific location via Python? AFAIU I need to use c4d.modules.bodypaint.SendPainterCommand(command, doc, tex, bc) with pp layer as 'tex', but I have know idea how to get it (or what the other variables should be).
if there's a way to do that?
Thanks

Sure,
I'm trying to make a process of sending projection paint layer to Photoshop slightly faster. Most other software I used have 1 button for this, in C4d I have to
0) freeze 3d view for larger resolution in most cases
I couldn't find any mentions of Freeze 3d View in SDK, but maybe at least I can save this PP layer with Python

Hello,
it seems that the PP Layer can be accessed like any other BodyPaint texture using GetSelectedTexture(). Then you can use SendPainterCommand() and avoid any dialogs by setting the flags to zero. Something like this:
tex = c4d.modules.bodypaint.PaintTexture.GetSelectedTexture()
if tex is not None:
bc = c4d.BaseContainer()
# define flags here
bc[c4d.PAINTER_SAVETEXTURE_FLAGS] = 0
c4d.modules.bodypaint.SendPainterCommand(c4d.PAINTER_SAVETEXTURE,doc,tex,bc)
This will update the existing texture file.
Best wishes,
