I have the following code:

#include "c4d.h"

...

Filename path = "C:\\path\\uv-islands-matte-01.png";
BaseContainer settings;
settings.SetInt32(TEXTURE_WIDTH, 1024);
settings.SetInt32(TEXTURE_HEIGHT, 1024);

PaintTexture* paintTexture = CreateNewTexture(path, settings);
if (!paintTexture) {
    ApplicationOutput("Failed to create a new paint texture.");
    return TRUE;
}

Upon building my solution in Visual Studio 2019, I get the following error:

Error C3861 'CreateNewTexture': identifier not found

Shouldn't CreateNewTexture() be already available, given that I am including c4d.h? I've tried brute-forcing the import by adding #include <c4d_painter.h> at the top of my script, but this obviously didn't help.

Additional context:

I am trying to create a "matte" bitmap image of my currently selected Object, where the UV islands of my Object are pure white, while the background (i.e. non-UV islands) is pure black.

This should be doable by programmatically by creating a new texture with a black background, then selecting all polygons in Polygon Mode by using CallCommand / SendModelingCommand, then executing the command "Fill Polygons" with the white foreground color and then finally saving the results. I'm not sure if this is all entirely possible with the current SDK, but I can compromise on some parts.

Either way, I can't go too far with the plan outlined above, given how CreateNewTexture() is not working to begin with.

Any insight / guidance would be very much appreciated. Here's hoping that this is just some silly oversight on my part.

Thank you!
