Detailed Description

A data class for creating tag plugins.
Tag plugins appear in the Tag menu of the Object Manager and can be attached to objects.

Use RegisterTagPlugin() to register a tag plugin.

Member Function Documentation

◆ Draw()

virtual Bool Draw	(	BaseTag *	tag,
		BaseObject *	op,
		BaseDraw *	bd,
		BaseDrawHelp *	bh
	)

virtual

Called when the display is updated to draw visual elements of the tag in the 3D view.

Note: This function is called in a thread context. See the important information about threading.; To get the current drawpass call bd->GetDrawPass().

Warning: Only draw in DRAWPASS::HIGHLIGHTS if you really know what you are doing. Otherwise always check the drawpass and then do not draw if it is DRAWPASS::HIGHLIGHTS.

Parameters

[in]	tag	The BaseTag connected with the TagData instance. Equal to `static_cast`<TagData>Get(). Provided for speed and convenience. Cinema 4D* owns the pointed shader.
[in]	op	The host object of the tag. Cinema 4D owns the pointed object.
[in]	bd	The editor's view. The caller owns the pointed view.
[in]	bh	The helper for the editor's view. The caller owns the pointed base draw helper.

Returns: true if successful, otherwise false.

◆ Execute()

virtual EXECUTIONRESULT Execute	(	BaseTag *	tag,
		BaseDocument *	doc,
		BaseObject *	op,
		BaseThread *	bt,
		Int32	priority,
		EXECUTIONFLAGS	flags
	)

virtual

Called at the point in the priority pipeline specified by AddToExecution, or the lack thereof.

Note: This function is called in a thread context. See the important information about threading.

Parameters

[in]	tag	The BaseTag connected with the TagData instance. Equal to `static_cast`<TagData>Get(). Provided for speed and convenience. Cinema 4D* owns the pointed shader.
[in]	doc	The host document of the tag. Cinema 4D owns the pointed document.
[in]	op	The host object of the tag. Cinema 4D owns the pointed object.
[in]	bt	The calling thread. Can be nullptr. Cinema 4D owns the pointed thread.
[in]	priority	The priority of the call to Execute() in the pipeline: EXECUTIONPRIORITY
[in]	flags	The execution flags: EXECUTIONFLAGS

Returns: The execution result: EXECUTIONRESULT

◆ AddToExecution()

virtual Bool AddToExecution	(	BaseTag *	tag,
		PriorityList *	list
	)

virtual

Called to add execution priorities.
By default returns false. In that case Cinema 4D will call Execute() at the priority specified by the user in the EXPRESSION_PRIORITY parameter of the container.
If overridden then insert points of execution in the list and return true. Heres is an example:

list->Add(op, EXECUTIONPRIORITY_ANIMATION, EXECUTIONFLAGS::NONE);

list->Add(op, EXECUTIONPRIORITY_GENERATOR, EXECUTIONFLAGS::NONE);

EXECUTIONFLAGS::NONE

@ NONE

None.

EXECUTIONPRIORITY_ANIMATION

#define EXECUTIONPRIORITY_ANIMATION

Animation.

Definition: ge_prepass.h:3875

EXECUTIONPRIORITY_GENERATOR

#define EXECUTIONPRIORITY_GENERATOR

Generators.

Definition: ge_prepass.h:3879

list

PyWideStringList * list

Definition: initconfig.h:447

op

PyObject * op

Definition: object.h:520

Cinema 4D will then call Execute() 2 times.

Parameters

[in]	tag	The BaseTag connected with the TagData instance. Equal to `static_cast`<TagData>Get(). Provided for speed and convenience. Cinema 4D* owns the pointed shader.
[in]	list	The priority list to add execution points to. Cinema 4D owns the pointed priority list.

Returns: true if priority was added to the execution list, otherwise false.

◆ GetModifiedObjects()

virtual Bool GetModifiedObjects	(	const BaseTag *	tag,
		const BaseDocument *	doc,
		BaseObject *&	op,
		Bool &	pluginownedop,
		const Matrix &	op_mg,
		Float	lod,
		Int32	flags,
		BaseThread *	thread
	)		const

virtual

Private.

◆ GetModifiedMatrix()

virtual Bool GetModifiedMatrix	(	const BaseTag *	tag,
		const BaseDocument *	doc,
		BaseObject *&	op,
		const Matrix &	op_mg,
		const Matrix &	op_ml,
		maxon::Opt< Matrix > &	deformMatrix,
		Float	lod,
		Int32	flags,
		BaseThread *	thread
	)		const

virtual

Private.
