      With "Customize Commands..." we are able to "restrict" certain commands to certain "managers" or "menus". I'm wondering if it's possible to detect these managers within a cmd-data-plugin while the mouse is hovering over a certain area.

      Imagine a popup filled with different content based on the currently hovered manager i.e. object-manager, material-manager, take-manager...!

      Is there a way to detect the underlying context of the mouse via python..?

      Cheers,
      Lasse

        Hello @lasselauch,

        thank you for reaching out to us. Unfortunately, it is neither in the C++ nor Python API possible to evaluate which manager is being hovered.

        Cheers,
        Ferdinand
