@mp5gosu I have one last question.
on the thread for custom nodes that you mentioned above there was a file which was posted from Niklas. https://raw2.github.com/PluginCafe/examples/master/treeview/custom-nodes/custom-nodes.cpp
Since this file was not there anymore and most probably it was a full code of what I am asking for, can it be that you or someone else might have that file somehow?
That would be a great help.
Thank you.

Hello @r_gigante the first link does not seem to exist.
Thank you for your reply.

I see.
This was very helpful. Thank you so much @mp5gosu. I am setting this as solved for now, maybe I will come back for more help here
Thank you again.

@mp5gosu Thank you for your reply.
If I may ask you, can you please provide any example that you have done to build the treeview using NodeData plugins or a custom node?
I am trying to implement a custom node for this one but since this is my first time building a tree view it seems a bit difficult as a beginning

Hello,
Seeing from the examples for the TreeView in the cinema4dsdk and Tree View Made Simple I noticed that there is used only cinema4d objects or materials to build the tree. I want to build a treeview where I can have my custom trees like.

• CustomParent1
  • object1
  • object2
• CustomParent2
  • object3
  • object4

Is there any example online which is supposed to do what I am looking for. If not can I have some directions on how to start this.
Thank you.

Hello @C4DS
Reading from the documentation

"Two BaseContainer are identical if they have the same ID, the same number of entries and if the entries are also identical"

I guess that unless you have the entries identical in both BaseContainers which in your case they are not, they can not be equal.
Why don't you try sorting the entries first using BaseContainer::Sort() function and then comparing them. This would do your work.

Bool MyCommand::Execute(BaseDocument* doc)
{
    BaseContainer bc1;

    bc1.SetInt32(1, 1234);
    bc1.SetString(2, "abcd"_s);
    bc1.SetFloat(3, 0.1234);
    bc1.SetBool(4, true);

    BaseContainer bc2;

    bc2.SetString(2, "abcd"_s);
    bc2.SetFloat(3, 0.1234);
    bc2.SetBool(4, true);
    bc2.SetInt32(1, 1234); // this line was moved from being the first to being the last

    bc1.Sort();
    bc2.Sort();

    ApplicationOutput("BaseContainer 1 equals BaseContainer 2: @", bc1 == bc2);
    ApplicationOutput("BaseContainer 1 not equals BaseContainer 2: @", bc1 != bc2);

    return true;
}

I hope this could help you.

Hello,
I want to disable an Item of a SimpleListView so I can't select it but I don't know if this is possible. Is there any way I can do this or should I use a TreeView instead?
Thank you.

Yes I tried with the mentioned PluginMessage ids but I tried only on C4DPL_PROGRAM_STARTED and it stopped working so I thought the other will not work as well.
I tried C4DPL_COMMANDLINEARGS now and this one only seems to work for me.
Thank you :)

I tried the code that you have tested but I am still having the same problem. As I have mentioned in the beginning the layout does load but then Cinema4D stops working (Not Responding)
