    Hi Manuel, Right! Found the culprit... symbolcache file... Couldn't understand how it was working for you and not for me. After deleting symbolcache worked straight away and it seems that also works without having doc.SetActiveTag(outro_cal_tag) Thank you very much for your awesome help with this! Andre

    @m_magalhaes said in Matrix/HPB to XYZ and vice versa: convert the matrix to XYZ xyz = c4d.utils.MatrixToHPB(m, order=c4d.ROTATIONORDER_XYZGLOBAL) # convert from radian to deg for i in xrange(3): xyz[i] = c4d.utils.RadToDeg(xyz[i]) print xyz Works perfectly. Thanks!

    @lasselauch I guess I need to revisit the script in the link above when I need to bake user data. Anyway, your script will do at the moment. It's readable enough for my newbie eyes It works as I expected! Thanks for the handy script. @m_adam Thanks for the confirmation!

    @r_gigante Thanks for the headsup about FindOrCreateEntry. Since Put does use that method internally, I didn't even consider about trying to use it, as I simply assumed it would have the same issue. Guess I was wrong about not trying it. Problem solved.

    Thanks, Mike for providing them, as said before be aware that if you encounter slowdown for the autocompletion and in typing in your IDE, it may come from here Cheers, Maxime.

    Hi sorry I overlooked your answers. If you want to have something more consistent you should store it into the scene. So the things that make more sense is to store it into the basecontainer of the current GvNode. Like so import c4d def main(): if not c4d.threading.GeIsMainThread(): return bc = op.GetDataInstance() # Get an unique ID at https://developers.maxon.net/forum/pid store_value = bc[1000001] if Input1 != store_value: print "Something changed" bc[1000001] = Input1 else: print "Nothing changed" Cheers, Maxime.

    Thanks @m_adam. Works as expected. My bad, I was looking at the documentation hierarchy erroneously (i.e c4d > modules > graphview > GvNode) Just a note: I think the if Multiply: line is supposed to be if isMultiply:. Thanks again. Have a great day ahead!

    @m_magalhaes said in Get active object after random value: The problem here is that Message() is called before Main() (nothing you can changed) Hello. Thank you so much. I've understood. Yea, it works. I'd break my mind to understand it by myself. So, then I gonna optimize drawcalls (don't know how to call it another) of LaunchUpdate() func

    Hi pe_matthewalexander , thanks for reaching out us. With regard to your question I suggest the following options (which strongly depend on the context you're supposed to run) implement a MessageData::CoreMessage() and check for EVMSG_RAYTRACER_FINISHED to be dispatched; use the BaseDocument::RenderDocument() to fire and control the render execution use the Remote effect as described here to have an external script being run upon rendering being completed implement your own VideoPostData (assuming you're willing to move to C++) Best, Riccardo

    Hi temple, thanks for reaching out us. With regard to your question, I confirm that it's not possible to switch to Python 3.x since R20 is compiled against Python 2.x. Best, Riccardo

    My workaround still works for earlier version so you don't really need to check for version but it's up to you. Cheers, Maxime.
