Howdy,Is it possible to change the Min/Max flags of a description loaded from a resource file?
I have a tag with a slider and I want to give the user the option of setting the Min/Max limits of the slider. The Min/Max flags are initially set in the description's resource file.
Adios,

Hey, Cactus Dan,
Yes! Use whichever of GeDialog::SetReal() or SetLong() or SetMeter() or SetDegree() or SetPercent() applies to change the slider/numerical edit field values (min/max/step/etc.).

Howdy,
Does that work for the Attributes Manager?

Should work as long as you get the BaseContainer for whatever it is (Object, Tag, Shader). For instance (an example from the code on which I'm working) :
<CODE>
// Add Restriction Tag to bone
if (!(rtag = boneObject->MakeTag(Trestriction))) throw ErrorException(ERROR_MEMORY, "PoserBase.SetWeights.rtag");
baseDocument->AddUndo(UNDO_NEW, rtag);
BaseContainer *bc = rtag->GetDataInstance();
bc->SetString(RESTRICTIONTAG_NAME_01, rname);
bc->SetReal(RESTRICTIONTAG_VAL_01, 1.0);
</CODE>Here I create a Restriction Tag, get an instance of its BaseContainer, then set the values (which are displayed in the AM). You just need to set the extended arguments, like for SetReal(), which I leave at default by not adding the arguments.
Unless this is your own Plugin object/tag/shader, the IDs for AM settings for C4D stuff can be found in the Resource/res/description folder under the appropriate name (i.e.: Trestriction.res).

Howdy,
Hmmm... when I looked up SetReal in the BaseContainer class, it only has 2 parameters (LONG id, Real r). Besides I really didn't want to set the "Real" value of the slider, I just want to be able to change the Min/Max limits of the slider.
Adios,

Oops, sorry 'bout that. I was looking at GeDialog::SetReal() for some reason.
You are going to have to get to these using Descriptions and GetParameter(). Check out the SDK doc under "Description" for more info and a start on how to access and set these.
