Hi!
Im a beginner in Plugins development for Cinema4d in C++.
My plugin must do some actions when the user drag a point selection tag to the Attribute Manager. Can somebody give me infos on which function to use for the management of the drag and drop in the Attribute Manager? In my personal tag class derived from the TagData, is it an other function than "Message(GeListNode* node, LONG type, void* data)"?
Thanks a lot in advance,

Welcome,

D&D; in the AM doesn´t need to be handled by you. Cinema does this automatically. The link you can get with GetBaseLink (respectively GetObjectLink, GetMaterialLink) from the object´s basecontainer (op->GetDataInstance())

And yes, the message is MSG_DESCRIPTION_CHECKDRAGANDDROP in the Message function.

Ok, but the message MSG_DESCRIPTION_CHECKDRAGANDDROP is never returned in the Message function even if there was a drag and drop.

Which Message() function is this in? It should be sent to NodeData::Message(). Perhaps you could post a short code snippet?

In fact, I was looking for the messages from the function
Message(GeListNode* node, LONG type, void* data)
in the class MyTagData derived from the class TagData. I think that I'm not looking in the good place (i.e., in the good class). In fact, my question is rather "In which class must I wait for the message MSG_DESCRIPTION_CHECKDRAGANDDROP?"
For the moment, I circumvented the problem by implementing my plugin with a dialog box.

Hmm, I cannot check right now, but this code should work:

Bool DPInstantTree::Message(GeListNode *node, LONG type, void *t_data)  
{  
     BaseObject          *op          = (BaseObject* )node;  
     BaseContainer *vdata = op->GetDataInstance();  
  
     if(type==MSG_DESCRIPTION_CHECKDRAGANDDROP)  
     {  
          DescriptionCheckDragAndDrop* dc = static_cast<DescriptionCheckDragAndDrop*>(t_data);  
          DescID di = dc->id;  
          if(di[0]==DP_SUBLEVEL_V)  
          {  
               //Do something :)  
          }  
     }  
}

Hope that helps.
