      Hi,

      We are calling GetWorkplaneMatrix() from the c++ API in a custom command to create objects in the center of the current workplane. This function is either crashing or returns an invalid matrix now in Cinema 4D 2026.3.x.

      Attached a simple repro: workplane_test.zip
      And the crash report: _bugreports.zip

      Note, that we build our project with the 2026.0 SDK and run the binary in 2026.3.

      Cheers,
      Peter

              This will be fixed in the next upcoming hotfix.
