      Hi,
      Timeline windows I customize the layout, how can I ensure that these layouts are there every time I open the Timeline window?

      I saw some thing in this thread, but this was my running result and it did not preserve the layout of the entire Timeline windows.

        Cool idea:), it's similar to Animbot in MAYA with custom widgets on the timeline, though I don't know how to do it, but I'm looking forward to you being able to implement it!

          Palette seems only handle command buttons but not a manager-like GUI? I don't sure about this, waiting for a solution.

            Hi @chuanzhen ,

            Sorry for the delayed answer.

            As stated in the thread that you've mentioned, c4d relies on layouts. If I got your intentions right and you would like to have your palette always in the animation window, then what you need to do is to load the layout that contains your palette at the right place. Please, refer to the video below, showing the workflow. After you save your .l4d layout file, you can load it programmatically (check the script in the thread that you've mentioned) or set it as a startup layout: Window -> Customization -> Save as Startup layout. In case you share your plugin that requires this palette, you also need to ship the .l4d layout file along with your plugin.

            Cheers,
            Ilia

              @i_mazlov Thanks for you reply!
              I want to customize the layout of the Timeline panel, and the entire c4d layout remains unchanged. We know that each c4d user has different c4d custom layout, I want the layout to be unified when different people open the TimeLine panel. Is it possible to achieve such an effect?

              相信我,可以的!
