Sorry, I have no idea. I asked the developers for help. I let you know when I know more about it.

Hey Matthias how are things going?
I'm working on it also. Do you or someone else know why this resulting DescID depth is zero? Look:(we allready have a Node(node) and a Port (port).
long portid = port->GetMainID(); GvOperatorData *od = n->GetOperatorData(); if (!od) break; DescID descid = od->GetDescID(node, GV_PORT_INPUT, portid); GePrint("DescID depth: " + LongToString(descid.GetDepth())); ===================================== Regards, Jan -

The previous post should do the trick, because I can use the descid to: FindTrack(descid), and to: CTrack::Alloc(ob, decid).
Or do I see this wrong?

Djee, I only need to know dynamically a port's animated parameter, like:
ID_BASEOBJECT_POSITION or
CAMERA_FOCUS.That can be done can't it ??
I just need to create a track and a key programaticaly.
When i started this, I thougt it was peanuts.jan

Matthias, still no sign of the developers?
Ok, in the meanwhile, I have setup an elaborate system of recognizing a port by it's name string!
1. I get the port's name from the GvPortDescription
2. construct the description id from a list of known port names and get the animated parameter id (like "Position . X")
3.Then I can create a track and set a key.
Well, it's a long list and there are a lot of if's and 'switch's but it works for now.
There are big disadvantages: it is slow, only the english language can be used and it's practically impossible to support all posible animatable parameters. (and it is unelegant)

I still have no answer for you but I am fiddling around with it too.
Btw. depending from where you call GetOperatorData() it is not allowed to call the virtual functions. See the docu note:
Note: You can only use the virtual functions of this object if you are in the same module that registered the node!

Yes, I am aware of your alert.
But I'm not sure. At the moment I use the GvNode->GetPortDescription in my (dialog) plugin. Would that cause a problem ?
Awaiting a word from you, I stopped experimenting with GetOperatorData(), because the DescID was not valid anyway.
By the way, I need to set keys for C4D BaseObjects or derivates, so not created by my plug.

This is ok to do.

So if I understand this right you want to check Xpresso Object nodes for their ports and then create tracks depending on the ports?

Tracks if they do not excist and keys, yes.
Something like the setdriven. But the keys are set by my plug at every frame in 'real time'.Regards,

Hi Jan,
I am afraid I have bad news. I just got the answer from the developers that it is not possible to get the description IDs from the port IDs.
cheers,

Hi Matthias,
Well, I'm a bit silenced. So i shall have to use the elaborate string compare method to get the port DescsiD.
Some thougths.It is strange, because C4D does it self all the time whenever a key must be set. How does C4D 'know' what keys to set autokeying is ON. I think it iterates through ALL objects and compares ALL animatable parameters of an object and creates tracks and keys for those parameters which have changed. OK, then we have a parameter that has changed. Now, if you allowe me to ask, how does C4D internally construct (programatically) the DescID?
Is there a kind of shortcut to find out if an object in the objectManager has a gvNode representation ?
Can you, or the team, suggest another way to get to my goal, Where would you look?
Thanks anyway and regards,
Jan

Is it not possible to answer the questions 2 and 3 from my previous post ?
