@s_bach said in Howto add a Field input to a python plugin:

FIELDLIST

works fine - i think i got an strange error before and trying CUSTOMFIELDLIST etc.

solved

i need the ressource syntax to add a field field to my interface.

@rsodre works flawless!

I got a plugin which returns, base on its settings a mesh or a spline. If i create an instance from my plugin using only GetVirtualObjects the Instance of my spline doesn't work.

so is there a way to use both in one plugin?

any news?

When i put a Python Generator or a Plugin under a Fracture Object ( explode or explode and connect) the Generator / Plugin won't update anymore.

See attached file for an simple example
fractureExample.c4d

to be honest - i don't know where my fault was. Unhappily i didn't commit the not working version. In my plugin i
already used a virtual doc for some other calculations. thank you!

vd.ExecutePasses(c4d.threading.GeGetCurrentThread(), True, True, True, c4d.BUILDFLAGS_NONE)
md = c4d.modules.mograph.GeGetMoData(matrix)
for m in md.GetArray(c4d.MODATA_MATRIX): rdPoints.append(m.off)

works like a sharm.

can't test it right now, but this should do the trick.

you'll need to install these packages to your c4d installation to make it work

import win32gui
import win32ui
import win32co
from pynput.keyboard import Key, Controller
handle = win32gui.FindWindow(0, "Texture Manager")
    try:
        if handle:
            
            keyboard = Controller()    
            win32gui.SetForegroundWindow(handle)
            keyboard.press(Key.ctrl)
            keyboard.press(w)

            keyboard.release(Key.ctrl)   
            keyboard.press(w)
    except:
        pass

i use a clone with a null object to generate me some point lists for further processing. unfortunally i'm not able to get the modata from this cloner.

see setup for details:
cloneNone.c4d

Ok this was defently my fault. It works now.
I was using GetVirtualObjects instead of GetContour.
