I didn't display a dialog box, but a popup menu. I used it for drag&drop of a custom extension file. It was very convenient to prompt the user what to do with the dropped file. Anyway, I moved that logic to a messagedata plugin that gets called from the sceneloader and that way I can show the popup menu

Hi. I have a sceneloader plugin that shows a popup menu in it's Load function. Until S26 it was working fine, but in S26 I get the following error when I call it:

result = gui.ShowPopupDialog(cd=None, bc=menu, x=c4d.MOUSEPOS, y=c4d.MOUSEPOS)
RuntimeError:must be called from the main thread

I guess this has something to do with the new task management system, but how can approach this issue?
Thanks.

Nevermind. I figured it out It was my mistake in the code. I made myself a helper function to initialize the ViewportSelect object, and I was initializing it with the wrong object. That's where the runtime error came from. Thanks anyway.

what if I want to code my own snapping ? How can you snap to points of parametric objects ?

Hi folks. Is there a way to use the "GetNearest" functions on parametric objects ? Like Cube and Sphere and so on.

ViewportSelect.GetNearestEdge(op, x, y, maxrad=MAXLONGl, onlyselected=False, ignorelist=None, ignorecnt=0)

If the target object is not editable I get:
RuntimeError: Object is not initialized yet

I've tried currentstate and makeeditable, but the result is the same.
