String to Spline (cast)

Kantronin

I have a string variable whose value is the identifier of a spline:

<c4d.SplineObject object called 'Spline1/Spline' with ID 5101 at 0x000001D672DC4F70>

Given this identifier, how do I get a spline-type variable ?

Thank you for reaching out to us. Unfortunately, I do not understand your question. The print out you provided, <c4d.SplineObject object ..., already indicates that the object is a c4d.SplineObject. So, I do not really understand what you mean with 'get a spline-type variable'. To get the underlying editable spline object for a spline generator, e.g., get a spline with editable vertices and tangents for a Flower Spline generator, you should use BaseObject.GetRealSpline. But that is only necessary when you have a BaseObject which under the hood represents a spline. It does not apply when you already have a SplineObject as you do.

Cheers,
