Correct here are all the one we expect to fail: bz2 curses gzip lzma zlib As a quick reminder, Python 3.7.7 doesn't officially support M1, and only Python 3.9.1 (released in December does fully support it). Cheers, Maxime.

Glad you found a way and yes I think it's safe now I guess there is no more open pint? If so I let you define your topic as solved (see Forum Structure and Features - Ask as Question If you don't know how to do it). Just in case a BaseContainer can also store a BaseContainer. so you could store your own BaseContainer at the ID_PLUGIN And in this BaseContainer at ID 0 stores, the obj counts, and then you can safely iterate over it. Cheers, Maxime.

Hi, without further feedback, we will consider this thread as solved by Monday and flag it accordingly. Cheers, Ferdinand

@kbar said in Plugin compiled on macOS Catalina for R23, not working on Big Sur?: @fwilleke80 I think setting the hardened runtime when you code sign solves the timestamp issue. I don’t set a timestamp. codesign --force --options runtime --sign 'Developer ID Application: YOURCOMPANYNAME' 'sdk/plugins/yourplugin/yourplugin.xlib' Thanks a lot Kent, for pointing this out! The one below is the string I use which, as said by Kent, doesn't need the timestamp because of the hardened runtime. codesign -f -s "Developer ID Application: <YOUR DEV ID>" --options runtime <binary file>.xlib Documentation updated accordingly

Python plugins do not work reliably in R23 on OSX 10.13.6. The C4D minimum spec is for 10.14.6 as Riccardo mentioned. And even if you try to debug a plugin on 10.13.6 what you will notice is that many calls (such as print) don't even work on this OS. So you can't even write anything out to the console to see what the problem might be. No amount of re-installing C4D will help you at all. You just have to let your customers know that the minimum spec for R23 is 10.14.6 and not guarantee any support for anything below that spec.

@m_adam Thanks for the clarification. Regards, Georgi.

thank you both @a_block for enduring my beginner questions and zipit always keeping it precise and clean ,,, I managed to get an old script to run 20 times faster by just finding junk I was able to cleanup ! Even though as a beginner I sometimes do not know what I am doing this profiling helps to find stupid code! so few more scripts to cleanup.

Hi, without further feedback, we will consider this thread as solved by tomorrow and flag it accordingly. Cheers, Ferdinand

why do you think C4D has any special handling for emojis? The font rendering is OS dependent, so any kind of text - including emoji codepoints - is drawn by the underlying operating system routines. Anything else would mean a ridiculous effort by Maxon to replicate font behavior. (I do not know how Windows internally handles emojis, I doubt that every available font has all these characters so most likely certain codepoints are mapped to common glyphs regardless of the font... but that is not a C4D question anyway.)

Hi, sorry, for bumping this thread. With the new S26 I have again problems installing pip in C4D's python on MacOS (Big Sur, x86). Funnily so, it works in c4dpy, but then the modules are only available in c4dpy, not inside C4D (probably expected). But when trying to do the same with C4D's python, regardless, if I try to use get-pip.py or .../python --ensure-pip -default-pip I end up with "Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable" as the main error and then in the following something along the lines "User base directory is not specified". The latter sounds a bit like, I could maybe simply specify a user base directory somehow? In R25 for example it worked nicely. Sorry, if this a stupid question. Pretty sure, I overlooked something in the docs somewhere. Cheers and thanks for any help in advance, Andreas

I’m confident they will find out Thanks for everything!

OK, thanks!

Hmmmm, well, on the one hand this function is a nice thing: It really does do the escaping for me, so the spaces in the URL are correctly replaced with "%20". But it does not handle anchors in a URL. This URL works fine: file:///Applications/Maxon/Cinema 4D R22/plugins/myplugin/help/content/omyobject/omyobject.html But this URL is not opened, instead an error (code -43) is thrown: file:///Applications/Maxon/Cinema 4D R22/plugins/myplugin/help/content/omyobject/omyobject.html#MYOBJECT_ATTRIBUTE That is a pity.

hi, this is the current state: "I think this is related to the ASYNC_POPUPEDIT being a non-resizable, modal dialog - and as such it is displayed kind of "Win legacy style" by the OS. Nothing we actively do set (and something which could change once they do further design overhauls in Win10)" Cheers, Manuel

Always using the threadIndex, of course Thanks, I'll try that!

Ah, great, thank for checking! Then I don't need to worry about my bmp code Cheers, Frank

arff, that's really strange, I'll send you a simple example and see if the error still happen on your system.

Hi @JuicyJuggles , I apologize for coming late here but luckly you've been already provided in the meanwhile of some good guidance from @PluginStudent and @zipit . Rest assured that the API documentation is, by far, the best place where to look for answers although I can see that, due to huge number of covered topics, it could take time to get used to browse it effectively. Last but not least, if the issue is addressed, don't forget to mark the right post as correct answer or if it's not possible to identify a specific one, to set the whole topic as Solved Cheers, Riccardo

Hello to all @zipit said in GetFontDescription() on Windows and Mac: FONT_FLAGS Thank you i miss flags in https://developers.maxon.net/forum/post/58961
