Not here. If I add the object and then edit the spline points, an undo removes the object and doesn't undo changes to my spline points. The CUSTOMDATATYPE_INFO_UNDOSAMECUSTOMGUI flag is set for the RegisterCustomDataTypePlugin().
Realize that what I have in my iCustomDataType is the spline 'type', 'count' (number of nodes or knots), and a Vector array containing the nodes/knots. type and count are handled as description resources but the Vector array only exists as such and isn't stored in a Description or BaseContainer.

You have to set the CUSTOMDATATYPE_INFO_UNDOSAMECUSTOMGUI flag for your CustomDataType plugin. Here is the register call of the gradient for instance.

Simple types don't need and shouldn't use this.

Any idea on how to get the customgui data to the customdatatype? I see that iCustomGui::SetData() is called often whereas iCustomGui::GetData() is never called - so my customgui gets the datatype but can never update it. I have found no way to do this. The only real example that I have for my type of datatype/gui is SplineData/SplineCustomGui but its underlying workings are hidden (as expected).
Come on here. It's coming up on TWO WEEKS since I started this request and I'm still groping in the dark. I can't run a business on R&D; and T&E; in this dismal economic situation. I need support here.

Thank you very much Robert. It seems to do the trick, but it didnt solve it completely. Im stuck where you are.
Concerning the support, i guess ive got sad news for you (if you didnt know already) :

No, I didn't catch that. Well, I'm going the alternative route then with a non-modal dialog and a button in the object's A.M. (the current code has been backed up maybe to be revitalized later). Probably my least palatable solution but I can't wait three weeks or more to get this moving.

Unfortunately i dont really have another choice, since the data im trying to put in the CustomDataType/Gui is needed quite often and adding it to the description everytime would be... overkill.
it supposed to hold five different types of color information...

Sorry to bump this topic again, but another week has passed and my plugin is somewhat useless without the custom datatype... im running out of stuff i can implement without it.
