I have this code snippet in my def main(), that I use to get the child (parametric) object and convert it to a polygonal object to make further modifications. This way I can make nondestructive generator/editor that works fluently with parametric objects as well.
However, when I place a subdivision surface as a child object, this bit does not work. The result is never a polygonal object but always a BaseObject.
What can I do in this case?
child = op.GetDown() polyobj = op.GetAndCheckHierarchyClone(hh,child,c4d.HIERARCHYCLONEFLAGS_ASPOLY, False)

Tried many things, I can't get the poly representation of a subdiv. surface

Hello,
Are you using this code in a Python Generator? Please always include the context of your code and your question.
As described in your other tread ("Custom Subdivide Generator"), GetAndCheckHierarchyClone() does not return an object but a dictionary. Using the "clone" index I have no problems to access the polygon version of a child subdivision surface.
Best wishes, Sebastian

Yes this is a python generator, can you post a code that "works" ? When I try to get the poly representation of the child subdivision surface all I get is: <c4d.BaseObject object called 'Subdivision Surface/Null' with ID 5140 at 0x000000E56BA8D150>
which is a base object

this code works perfectly fine for me:
result = op.GetAndCheckHierarchyClone(hh,child,c4d.HIERARCHYCLONEFLAGS_ASPOLY,False) if result is None: return None polyobj = result["clone"]
best wishes, Sebastian

As you can see the left python generator contains a subdivision object, and it's not converted to polygons. However I've converted the right example's content to polygonal object and it works perfectly with a polygonal operation.

I can confirm some problem in your scene with the very Subdivision Surface object you use. But I cannot reproduce the behavior with a new Subdivision Surface object and a cube. Does this problem only occur with that scene or also with a new scene and new elements?

Yes, this happens with every scene and every new element. Can you post the same scene made on your end, so I can test it?

I've bean experimenting with this since we've discussed, looks like sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. Sometimes when you play around a lot with the same generator, it suddenly stops working (I have no idea why)

if you can find a way to reproduce the issue we could file a bug report.
