Hello,
In a python tool I wrote, I'm setting a backgroundObject with an animation. Then the tool edits the active render data to change the width and height of the render (and the viewports).
I use the following code:
renderData = document.GetActiveRenderData()
renderData[c4d.RDATA_XRES] = width
renderData[c4d.RDATA_YRES] = height
renderData[c4d.RDATA_FRAMERATE] = fps
renderData[c4d.RDATA_FRAMEFROM] = c4d.BaseTime(startFrame, fps)
renderData[c4d.RDATA_FRAMETO] = c4d.BaseTime(endFrame, fps)
document.InsertRenderData(renderData)
document.SetActiveRenderData(renderData)The problem is that, most of the times, the viewport is not refreshed with the correct width and height.
If I open the render settings dialog, I can see the values that the tool has set but it's not the ones used in the viewports: if I edits the values and put the same value again, then it's working! If I don't do that manual edit, I can do a lot of different actions in the application and the viewport is never refreshed with the correct width and height. There's a missing notification and nothing else than opening the dialog and entering the value manually seems to trigger that notification.
I tried adding c4d.EventAdd(), MSG_UPDATE, force redraw views, change the timeline, etc. but nothing fixed the problem.Thanks for your help,

Hi Benoit, after you set the data you can redraw the editor view by the following call:
c4d.DrawViews(c4d.DRAWFLAGS_FORCEFULLREDRAW)
Btw, document.InsertRenderData(...) is not necessary here, renderData is the reference to the renderdata object.

That's one of the things I already tried. I just tried again, and it doesn't work. Maybe because I'm on a mac?
Thanks for the comment on InsertRenderData, I didn't put it at first but added while trying to force the refresh...Benoit
