    Is there a way to encrypt (lock) the Python code on the Python tag?

      Hello, I wrote a Python code on the Python tag that works with User Data. I want this code to enter a password like the password function in xpresso so that the code can be seen. Is there a way? (I tried switching to a script or plug-in, but I'm a beginner so I don't know how to encrypt the plug-in or how to write a new code to change the Python tag and user data to a script or Python.)

      I'd like to write the same feature so that the lock function of xpresso doesn't reveal the code of the Python tag.

        Hello @seora,

        Thank you for reaching out to us. There is noch such functionality to encrypt Python scripting elements. You can encrypt Python plugins, but not things like a Python tag or generator object.

        I have moved this thread since its is not about the Python API but a feature of Cinema 4D.

        Cheers,
        Ferdiand
