"Axis Center " Script button reuse problem
-
Hi:
I am a beginner of Python, my English is not very good, please forgive me.I wrote a script that was broadly similar to the new "Axis Center" feature in R21, but had difficulty writing an interactive interface.The main problem is that the first time you click the "Null" button, you can normally create a Null object, but the second time the error is reported, what is going on? How do buttons run repeatedly ?# -*- coding: UTF-8 -*- import c4d from c4d import gui __TITLE__ = "Axis Center" null = [] class MyDialog(gui.GeDialog): def CreateLayout(self): self.SetTitle(__TITLE__ ) self.GroupBegin(id=1000, flags=c4d.BFH_FIT, cols=2, title="Axes") self.GroupBorder(c4d.BORDER_GROUP_IN) self.GroupSpace(5, 5) self.GroupBorderSpace(10, 0, 10, 4) self.AddEditSlider(id = 1001, flags=c4d.BFH_RIGHT, initw=60, inith=15) self.AddEditSlider(id = 1002, flags=c4d.BFH_RIGHT, initw=60, inith=15) self.AddEditSlider(id = 1003, flags=c4d.BFH_RIGHT, initw=60, inith=15) self.AddCheckbox(id = 1004, flags=c4d.BFH_RIGHT, initw=80, inith=15, name="Null") self.GroupEnd() self.AddButton(1005, flags=c4d.BFH_LEFT, initw=180, inith=10, name="GO") return True def Command(self,id,msg): if id == 1004: null.append(c4d.BaseObject(5140)) else: pass if id == 1005: main() return True def main(): present = doc.GetActiveObjects(c4d.GETACTIVEOBJECTFLAGS_CHILDREN) if not present: print "The polygon object was not selected" gui.MessageDialog('The polygon object was not selected!') return for obj in present: pl = obj.GetAllPoints() pc = len(pl) sel = obj.GetPointS() sel = sel.GetAll(pc) indexe = [i for i,o in enumerate(pl)] position = [o for i,o in enumerate(pl)] il = [i for i,o in enumerate(pl) if sel[i] == 1] spl = [o for i,o in enumerate(pl) if sel[i] == 1] if len(spl) < 1: print "no enough points" gui.MessageDialog('no enough points!') return False x_record = [round(a[0],7) for a in spl if round(a[0],7) != -0.0] x_record += [0 for b in spl if round(b[0],7) == -0.0] y_record = [round(c[1],7) for c in spl if round(c[1],7) != -0.0] y_record += [0 for d in spl if round(d[1],7) == -0.0] z_record = [round(e[2],7) for e in spl if round(e[2],7) != -0.0] z_record += [0 for f in spl if round(f[2],7) == -0.0] x_record.sort(reverse=True) y_record.sort(reverse=True) z_record.sort(reverse=True) x = (round((x_record[0] - x_record[-1]) * dlg.GetFloat(1001) * 0.01 , 5)) + x_record[-1] y = (round((y_record[0] - y_record[-1]) * dlg.GetFloat(1002) * 0.01 , 5)) + y_record[-1] z = (round((z_record[0] - z_record[-1]) * dlg.GetFloat(1003) * 0.01 , 5)) + z_record[-1] m = obj.GetMg() mx = obj.GetMg() mx.off = mx.Mul(c4d.Vector(x,y,z)) matrix = [] for orientation in position: mt = c4d.Matrix() mt.off = orientation m_mt = m.__mul__(mt) swop = m_mt.__invert__() result = swop.__mul__(mx) matrix.append(result.__invert__()) doc.StartUndo() doc.AddUndo(c4d.UNDOTYPE_CHANGE,obj) obj.SetMg(mx) if not null: pass else: doc.InsertObject(null[0]) null[0].SetMg(mx) point_position = [(t.off) for t in matrix] point_indexe = [([indexe[z],point_position[z]]) for z in range(len(indexe))] set_point = [obj.SetPoint(k[0],k[1]) for k in point_indexe] obj.Message(c4d.MSG_UPDATE) c4d.EventAdd() doc.EndUndo() if __name__=='__main__': __anchor__ = "\u98de\u821e\u7684\u56e2\u5b50" dlg = MyDialog() dlg.Open(c4d.DLG_TYPE_ASYNC, 450, 200, 300, 300)

Hi,
welcome to the forum and no worries, most people here do not speak perfect English. But you might want to do two things in the future: Check if the indentations are correct in your code and give us the exact exceptions if you run into them.
In your code the problem lies in the way how you handle your "create null" checkbox. You will find details in the commented code below (which I have also sort of fixed for you). Only sort of, because there a quite a few other problems with your code if I am not totally misunderstanding your goals, which I have neither mentioned nor rectified. I also took the freedom of giving some unwanted stylistic advice
With all that nagging I feel that it is necessary to point out, that you did pretty well with your code, especially some of the list comprehensions are quite elegant for a beginner. Keep at it!

Thank you very much for your help to solve the previous doubts. I will continue to work hard.
