hey all,
I just feel kinda dumb but.. I can't find a filename gui for a GeDialog.
So I just wanted to ask you guys (since you all have more experience) if there is one.
I would need it to set Textures for a certain material channel.Thanks in advace!

Hello,
there is no "primitive" filename dialog gadget. The filename GUI element is made of a default string gadget and a default button gadget. You can create this custom GUI element with AddCustomGui(). The ID of the filename GUI is CUSTOMGUI_FILENAME. The value stored with the GUI element can be accessed with SetString() and GetString():
self.AddCustomGui(self._filename, c4d.CUSTOMGUI_FILENAME, "", c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT, 50, 10, c4d.BaseContainer()) self.SetString(self._filename, "C:\\justsomefile.png")

Hello,
the Python API is an incomplete copy of the C++ API so you find a lot relevant information also in the C++ documentation, in this case you find the CUSTOMGUI type.
