hi,

Sorry for the delay of this answer, we simply missed your post.

When using STRING READOUT_WIDTH { ANIM OFF; } it's important that you initialize the parameter in your Init function. Otherwise uninitialized type will be a int.
At some point, the code is comparing the old value type with the new value. That's why it's waiting for a Int while you provide a Str. (feel like a bug to me)

I don't see the problem using STATICTEXT or STRING. It does create the expected fields. The StaticText can't be Animated anyway, i would remove the ANIM OFF

STATICTEXT PYPREFERENCE_STATICTEXT {} STRING PYPREFERENCE_STRING { }

about the border around the static text you can declare the field like this in your ressource file:

STATICTEXT PYPREFERENCE_STATICTEXT_BORDER {BORDER;}

Works like a charm!
It's much more flexible than I hoped;)

Thanks a lot!

Hi Manuel,

what you say rings a bell. I was sure it was because the vector hadn't allocated anything yet.

Global possibly wasn't the best way admittedly, it just started like that for convenience. But it ended up being a bit complex, there's a lot of things accessing it, so I didn't want to change it (for now).

@m_magalhaes said in Setting up global plugin structs:

create a pointer and in pluginstart and pluginend take care of assign memory and free it

hadn't thought of that. Seems to work - I'll go with that! Thanks 👍

WP.

Thanks for the reply, Wicked.

interessting, but not what i hoped for ... 😉

kepp on chrunching

@zipit Thanks, I thought so... but you never know whether some functionality has a hidden internal purpose. Deprecating it will probably be the best solution.

That are great news, but sadly I am not a Phyton User

well sorry for the misleading.
I was thinking it should work because the object is inserted with doc->InsertObject

hi,

i was saying not to use the same ID (in case of conflict)

But it seems that there's no conflict neither with the symbol name or the symbol ID.
A bit strange.

Hi @delizade,

Thanks @a_block for helping out! @delizade you can find the description for the priority options in the Python Tag section of the user manual.

It sure does answer the question.

Thanks, Riccardo!

@ECHekman said in Compiling material nodegraph to shaders:

I take it this also means its not possible to manually convert node ourselves?

Right.

Hi @nicholas_yue,

@Cairyn said everything (thanks for that). I would additionally recommend to read the Wikipedia article on graph traversal I have posted in your other thread, as it might clear up a few things for you.

@m_magalhaes
Now i know how to solve my problem!
Thank you for your reply.
Cheers！

Thank you @m_magalhaes !

Hi @kbar I'm able to reproduce the issue and I've opened a new bug report about it.
The only workaround is to return a new VolumeObject each time.

Cheers,
Maxime.
