I'm trying to get started with the new python API, and I'm struggling to get things working. I’d appreciate any insight on the following:</p>
<h1>Importing FBX</h1>
<p dir="auto">I'm unable to automate fbx importing, from the documentation I figured something like this would work, but the file explorer dialog keeps opening.</p>
<pre><code>import zbrush.commands as zbc
zbc.set_next_filename("c:\\MyModel.fbx")
zbc.press("Zplugin:FBX ExportImport:Import")
</code></pre>
<h1>Folder Creation</h1>
<p dir="auto">I want to automate folder creation and naming</p>
<pre><code>zbc.press("Tool:SubTool:New Folder")
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">This correctly calls the "New Folder" button, but how can I automate what gets typed into the popup dialog? Can I create folders with a specific name without user typing the name?</p>
<h1>Subtool Renaming</h1>
<p dir="auto">Is there any way to rename the subtools inside a tool? I guess this is a similar question to the Folder creation, if I can fill the text in the popup from the ui button, this would be easy.<br />
The closest thing I got was renaming just the first subtool by renaming the tool itself:</p>
<pre><code>zbc.set_tool_path(zbc.get_active_tool_index(), f"MyFirstSubtool")
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">Is there a way to fill or interact with these popup dialogs?</p>
<p dir="auto">Thanks in advance</p>

sorry for the delay. As I said in the beginning, you can implement your own serializer using GoZ. But there is no dedicated exporter API in ZScript. I assume you are using some RoutineCall to achieve what you are doing. You cannot escape any GUI associated with such call.
Cheers,
Ferdinand

I was unable to determine the root cause of the issue, however I was able to work around it by preloading direct dependencies with a FileExecute call and using the SearchPath Windows function to locate the runtime dependency DLLs and pass the absolute paths to LoadLibrary (I'm aware this is not recommended, but should be fine for this internally used plugin).
I couldn't find anything in the newly added Maxon options that appeared to affect the loading behavior.  My only remaining theory is that the new licensing process is indirectly triggering this behavior:
LoadLibrary function returns STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND error on impersonate thread in Windows

Thanks again!

The ZBrush GoZ SDK is the only ZBrush SDK there currently is. There is no dedicated C++ SDK for ZBrush at the moment. Although most GoZ bridges are realized in C++ due to the hefty throughput requirements that come with geometry data as dense as ZBrush data usually is.
Cheers,
Ferdinand
