<![CDATA[Update Xref filepath without user interaction]]>I'm looking to update filepath of an Xref via Python without user interaction requiring the "Yes" on a popup dialog.

This works:

xref.SetParameter(
    c4d.ID_CA_XREF_FILE,
    filepath,
    c4d.DESCFLAGS_SET_USERINTERACTION,
)

But that basically means I will get this pop-up dialog:
c0a78c0f-923a-4b74-87fc-d4536cfac6f5-image.png

However I want to do this without any user interaction in-between. How can I force the update without requiring the c4d.DESCFLAGS_SET_USERINTERACTION flag.

How can I update the filepath without the pop-up dialog?

This has come up often before, see here:

But from back in 2020 through 2022 these remained lingering with "impossible". But hey, the future is bright and now. How do we do this? (From Python)

Cheers,
