      Hi everyone!
      There is an idea for get command information from command palette by right mouse click.

      For example: make a script and add it to right click menu, and then I can click on any command through this button to get information like command name, ID e.t.c.

      Is this possible with python?

        Hi I've forwarded to the responsible developers, since it's Christmas and new year period, it may take some time until I come back to this topic (most likely only next week).

        Cheers,
        Maxime.

            Hi the devs just came back and here his reply:

            Hey Maxime, despite the menu itself isn't hardcoded (it's MENU M_ICON_PALETTE in c4d_m_coffee_manager.res file), there's no way by default for a python script to get the command id of the right clicked command in order to do the required queries, that would require changes in C4D code.

            And so far it is not a priority for us to have such feature so, we keep the idea in case we want to revisit our menus but such feature is not on any roadmap at the moment.
            Cheers,
            Maxime.

              I look forward to any updates regarding this feature in the future.
