Hi guys,
another day another problem. I'm trying to change the state of a simple checkbox from within my tag plugin. The checkbox has the ID 10000, so this is what I do.
bc = tag.GetData()
print bc.GetBool(10000) # this correctly comes back True or False
bc.SetBool(10000,True)
-> this does internally change the value, but does not update the UI, so next frame the setting if forgotten!I tried all of these to no avail:
op.Message(c4d.MSG_UPDATE)
tag.Message(c4d.MSG_UPDATE)
c4d.EventAdd(c4d.EVENT_NOEXPRESSION)Nothing does it.
Updating user data from a regular Python tag works fine, it's only once I have it running as a Tag plugin that it does not work any more.
Any ideas anyone?

Well, what about setting the Container back to your tag ?

tag.GetData() returns a new copy of the settings container, use GetDataInstance() instead to get the internal container.
