Hi everyone,

is there a simple solution to add this search icon to the Dialogs Menubar..? (via Python)

Thanks,

Hi @bentraje,

The thread about baking curves is still the right way to go if you want to be exact and want to bake other properties than PSR.

However, if you're just interested in baking only your PSR, you can use doc.Record(), this works on all selected Objects since R19. You can take a look at the following example for baking Cubes with a Vibrate-Tag for example...:

import c4d

#https://developers.maxon.net/docs/Cinema4DPythonSDK/html/modules/c4d.documents/BaseDocument/index.html?highlight=executepasses#BaseDocument.ExecutePasses
def SetCurrentTime(currentTime, doc):
    doc.SetTime(currentTime)
    doc.ExecutePasses(None, True, True, False, 0)    

def main():
    minTime = doc[c4d.DOCUMENT_MINTIME]
    maxTime = doc[c4d.DOCUMENT_MAXTIME]
    fps = doc.GetFps()
    
    if minTime != maxTime:
        currentTime = minTime
        while (currentTime <= maxTime): 
            SetCurrentTime(currentTime, doc)
            print "Baking: Frame: %s" %(currentTime.GetFrame(fps))
            
            #New since version R19.
            #Records the active objects in the document.
            doc.Record()
            
            currentTime += c4d.BaseTime(1, fps)

if __name__=='__main__':
    main()

Oh, and accessing the "Bake Objects..." Dialog via Python is not possible!

Interesting @m_magalhaes !

Can I ask how you found out about this number? Is there any way for us to find this of our own..?

Thanks & Cheers,
Lasse

Hi all,

I'm looking for a way to detect the selected not active RenderData via python, but had no luck.
Any ideas?! Isn't that possible?

def main():
    rdata = doc.GetFirstRenderData()
    while rdata:
	   print rdata.GetBit(c4d.BIT_ACTIVERENDERDATA)
	   print rdata.GetBit(c4d.BITACTIVE)

	   rdata = rdata.GetNext()

if __name__=='__main__':
    main()

Cheers,
Lasse

Thanks so much, @m_adam!
Works like a charm!

I must add:

Either they are dragable to the layout or I'm only able to press within the dialog...

I'm having troubles to understand the SetCommandDragId function for c4d.gui.BitmapButtonCustomGui.
I'm using the following function to add my BitmapButton to my Dialog:

    def AddIconButton(self, buttonid, title, iconid, tooltip):
        bc = c4d.BaseContainer()
        bc.SetBool(c4d.BITMAPBUTTON_BUTTON, True)
        bc.SetInt32(c4d.BITMAPBUTTON_ICONID1, iconid)
        bc.SetString(c4d.BITMAPBUTTON_TOOLTIP, tooltip)
        bc.SetInt32(c4d.BITMAPBUTTON_FORCE_SIZE, 32)
        button = self.AddCustomGui(buttonid, c4d.CUSTOMGUI_BITMAPBUTTON, title, c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT | c4d.BFV_SCALEFIT, 40, 40, bc)
        #set button.SetCommandDragId() here?!!!
        return button

Even inside the CreateLayout I had no luck with FindCustomGUI() ...
What's the best way to approach this?

Thanks,
Lasse

yeah, had no luck either... okay, so I'm probably back to importing requests as 3rd party module. :)

Thanks for the quick help, Robert!
