Hi,
i'm writing a exportplugin for cinema 4d, but i have a problem.
My plugin starts correctly, but it isn't in the export menu.
I know it's a problem with name, when i register the plugin.
In the documentation i read:

Note:
If you want to affect the order that your plugins are displayed in menus you can add #$n as a prefix to this name, where n is a number.

But when i do it, it doesn't works. Maybe i don't understand it correctly. Where is the mistake?
Please Help!

Code:
if __name__ == "__main__":
  plugins.RegisterSceneSaverPlugin(PLUGIN_ID, "#$2C3DExporter", Exporter, 0, "Discription", "c3d", PLUGIN_RESOURCE)

My another question is, is there an example for a scenesaverdata plugin?
I didn't find an example.

Thanks.

Have nobody an idea?
Here is the complete code:

import c4d, sys;
from c4d import plugins, storage;

PLUGIN_ID = 123456789;
PLUGIN_NAME = "C3DExporter";
PLUGIN_VERSION = "1.0";
PLUGIN_RESOURCE = plugins.GeResource();

class C3DExporter(plugins.SceneSaverData) :
 
  def Save(self, node, name, doc, filterflags) :
      print("Export gestartet!");
      return storage.FILEERROR_NONE;
     
if __name__ == "__main__":
  plugins.RegisterSceneSaverPlugin(PLUGIN_ID, "#$2" + PLUGIN_NAME, C3DExporter, c4d.PLUGINFLAG_SCENEFILTER_DIALOGCONTROL, "Discription", "c3d", PLUGIN_RESOURCE)
  print(PLUGIN_NAME + " Version " + PLUGIN_VERSION + " erfolgreich geladen!");

This is the prefix format that seems to work for me:

if __name__ == "__main__":
  plugins.RegisterSceneSaverPlugin(PLUGIN_ID, "#$2.PLUGIN_NAME", C3DExporter, c4d.PLUGINFLAG_SCENEFILTER_DIALOGCONTROL, "Discription", "c3d", PLUGIN_RESOURCE)
  print(PLUGIN_NAME + " Version " + PLUGIN_VERSION + " erfolgreich geladen!");

Be aware of this though.
I currently have two custom python plugins on my system. And If I use this prefix thing on only one of them, and not both, It doesn't work.
This is the first time I've tried it and I haven't tested it that much. But you might find that you'll have to use a prefix on all the plugins in your menu in order for this to work properly.
