Thanks, Rui, I was able to reproduce the problem. I'll take a deep look into it. I've reconstructed your
problem in this project:

I started removing sections of the description with each restart of Cinema until I found what caused the
issue. It is the BITMAPBUTTON GUIs that cause the exception in the parent call of GetDEnabling().

Unfortunately, even if you remove your bitmap buttons, it sometimes fails with a TypeError:

Traceback (most recent call last) :
  File "'test.pyp'", line 8, in GetDEnabling
TypeError: argument 5

Which is also a known issue of R14 and was fixed in R15. See https://developers.maxon.net/forum/topic/6533/7047_getdenabling-typeerror-on-parentcall

As a workaround for this issue (and the original if you want to keep your BITMAPBUTTONs) , you can
use a try-catch block.

    def GetDEnabling(self, *args, **kwargs) :
        # ...
        try:
            return c4d.plugins.ObjectData.GetDEnabling(self, *args, **kwargs)
        except TypeError:
            return True

Thank you for the information, Niklas.

I tried the following:

def GetDEnabling(self, node, id, t_data, flags, itemdesc) :

try:
return c4d.plugins.NodeData.GetDEnabling(self, node, id, t_data, flags, itemdesc)

except AttributeError:
return True

isoff1=node[AB_ON1]
isoff2=node[AB_ON2]
isoff3=node[AB_ON3]

if (id[0].id == AB_NUM_B1) : return isoff1==1
          if (id[0].id == AB_DENS_B1) : return isoff1==1
          if (id[0].id == AB_START_B1) : return isoff1==1
          if (id[0].id == AB_END_B1) : return isoff1==1
          if (id[0].id == AB_SEED_B1) : return isoff1==1

          if (id[0].id == AB_NUM_B2) : return (isoff1*isoff2)==1

          if (id[0].id == AB_END_B2) : return (isoff1*isoff2)==1
          if (id[0].id == AB_SEED_B2) : return (isoff1*isoff2)==1

if (id[0].id == AB_ON3) : return (isoff1*isoff2)==1

return c4d.plugins.NodeData.GetDEnabling(self, node, id, t_data, flags, itemdesc)

But I still get the same error

I tried it out in R15 and the error also occurs there.

What you've tried would exit the GetDEnabling() function immediately.

I believe I will really have to ditch the bitmaps.
It is a shame, since I made some nice graphics
