Thanks @zipit,
Managed to solve it thanks to you.

That's ok, I have meanwhile refactored everything* into a MessageData plugin anyway so the plugin will work** even if the dialog is closed.

*Everything except for timer stuff, which for some reason works differently for a dialog than for a message plugin.

**There are some strange effects like hanging or crashing application on Close, when the dialog is in certain states. I will need to investigate whether this is an effect of the missing CoreMessage calls or something that happens now due to refactoring.

hello,

So yes, you have to react to MSG_DESCRIPTION_POPUP, you can see an example on the nodedata manual

I thought first you wanted to create a popup menu.

Cheers,
Manuel

@m_magalhaes

Hi Frank, I've just been confirmed that the function will be exposed in the future.

Best, Riccardo

hello,

I've forked the question to this thread

cheers,
Manuel

@m_magalhaes Epic, It works! 🙂 Thank you very much Manuel!

Thanks, Manuel, for looking into it.
Maybe worth a note in the docs? It is a bit confusing, isn't it?
Cheers to the entire team,
Andreas

@Jmelon I'm sorry there is no specific message sent to the GvOperatorData It's all handled in the UI.

Cheers,
Maxime.

hello,

ID_TREEVIEW_PLUGIN 1001145
ID_EXPRESSION_PLUGIN 1001148
ID_OPERATORPOOL_PLUGIN 1001138
ID_EXPRESSION_TAG 1001149

last one should be but it's not defined in python.

cheers,
Manuel

hello,

good you found out how to resolve your issue,

for you next thread, please mark your thread as a question as follow

Cheers
Manuel

Interesting. Thanks for the further clarification!

@bentraje actually there's nothing to get fixed in the future, since it can't be reproduce with a clean installation. Please give it a try with a clean installation and if you're able to achieve the issue and provide us with the steps, we'll look into it.

Thanks, Riccardo

ok thanks for the info @m_adam.

I can only confirm it's not possible in Cinema 4D.

The thing that matches the more is the Command Line windows.

Cheers,
Maxime.

Hi @mfersaoui, I thought you were referring to objects pinned under the generator and not children in the cache. In this case checking that the cache is valid before attempting to access any of its methods is mandatory.

Last but not least, I think we're running out of options here, cause even attempting to use SpecialEventAdd() / MessageData::CoreMessage() doesn't help too much and leads on some cases to unpredictable results.

Best, Riccardo
