Seem that the normal is returned by SnapCore::Snap in SnapResult::mat.v2. I'm verifying

Hi all,
I tried the code described in this thread: https://plugincafe.maxon.net/topic/6626/7199_r14-snap-system/10
This code inside the liquitool example work as expected.
But if i try to use SnapCore::Intersect instead SnapCore::Snap, to get the normal at point, this code don't work.

This is the line that I changed to:
if (snap->Intersect(pos, norm, false, res)) instead if (snap->Snap(pos, res))

Seem that the intersection don't work anymore.

Any help?
Thanks in advance

Real mx = msg.GetReal(BFM_INPUT_X);
Real my = msg.GetReal(BFM_INPUT_Y);
LONG button;
  
switch (msg.GetLong(BFM_INPUT_CHANNEL))
{
    case BFM_INPUT_MOUSELEFT : button=KEY_MLEFT; break;
    case BFM_INPUT_MOUSERIGHT: button=KEY_MRIGHT; break;
    default: return TRUE;
}
  
AutoAlloc<SnapCore> snap;  // Allocate snap
if (!snap) return FALSE;
  
snap->Init(doc, bd);
  
Real dx, dy;
BaseContainer bc;
BaseContainer device;
Vector pos;
SnapResult res;
  
BaseObject *active = doc->GetActiveObject();
  
win->MouseDragStart(button, mx, my, MOUSEDRAGFLAGS_DONTHIDEMOUSE|MOUSEDRAGFLAGS_NOMOVE);
while (win->MouseDrag(&dx,&dy,&device)==MOUSEDRAGRESULT_CONTINUE) // Start drag
{
    // Increment mouse position during drag
    mx += dx;
    my += dy;
    pos = bd->SW(Vector(mx, my, 500)); // Update pos
  
    if (snap->Snap(pos, res)) // If point snap anywhere 
    {
        pos += res.delta; // Pos will be updated with snapped delta
    }
  
    if (active)
        active->SetAbsPos(pos); // Set the object position to the new one!
  
    DrawViews(DRAWFLAGS_ONLY_ACTIVE_VIEW|DRAWFLAGS_NO_THREAD|DRAWFLAGS_NO_ANIMATION); // Update viewport
}
  
win->MouseDragEnd(); // Reset viewport status
  
EventAdd();

Seem that i miss to set in GetRenderInfo() the SHADERINFO_DYNAMICSUBSHADERS. Now all seem working good. A confirmation will be welcome. :)

Thanks

Hi All,

i'm working on my custom shader that can have a lot of subshaders as the C4D Layer shaders.

Using HandleShaderMessage i get problem with TextureManager. Every time i add a texture, in TexManager the list will be replaced by last shader added and also with Save Project with Asset i get Double Textures, renamed, in Tex Folder.
My question is: Do i really need to use HandleShaderMessage? If so.. why ?

Thanks in advance
Renato T.

Ok, i solved my problem was my miss. Thanks again.

@PluginStudent
About HandleShaderMessage() in Message().

There is a specific message to do that or i need to use HandleShaderMessage() any time Message() is called?

EDIT: MSG_INITIALCHANNEL seem to be.
EDIT2: no... no MSG

@PluginStudent Hi, thank for answer.

I hape problem when save project with asset it used. Seem to work not well. Texture manager also have problem.. missing textures.

For "Sub Texture" i mean that this is a shader like Layer or Filter. This shader have layers and each layer can have a lot textures inside.

I would like to "handle" to know, so i asked to detailed example to learn and understand why we have so problems in texture manager and loading saved scene with assets. Texture are not miss at all but something is missing in the management of assets.

Thanks
Renato

Hi all,

I have problems with the assets management.
I'm working on a shader that has a lot of sub textures.
Where i can find a good example to understand how i must handle it?

Thanks in advance

HI R.

I already used the BitmapButtonCustomGui for my dialog. Just i got some Gui corruption problems so I tried to switch to standard button... but the corruption of gui was not caused by it.

Thanks for your answer.

Hi Zipit,

ok, thanks for that. I'll use the BitmapButton in this case. I hoped that there was a way to change the status of button in someway.

Thanks again
Renato
