I'm trying to set up a tag link field to accept only bezier splines.I can limit it to point splines by either specifying Ospline in the res file or using DescriptionCheckDragAndDrop with
>dcu->result = dcu->element->GetNodeID() == 0;
.
Does anyone know how to refine this down to bezier splines specifically? -

Since there is no 'bezier' spline object as it is a setting not a type, first verify that the object type is spline (you should be using: op->GetInfo()&OBJECT;_ISSPLINE). Then you'll have to get the type setting (SPLINEOBJECT_TYPE) from it using its BaseContainer or GetParameter() and accept/decline the drag-n-drop accordingly. The setting types are described in resource/res/description/ospline.res.

Thanks for your help, this worked a treat.
I actually started with GetInfo() & OBJECT_ISSPLINE as per the SDK example before taking a wrong turn.
Here's the working code:
>
dcu->result = dcu->element->GetInfo() & OBJECT_ISSPLINE; \> dcu->element->GetParameter(SPLINEOBJECT_TYPE, splineSetting, 0); \> dcu->result = splineSetting == SPLINEOBJECT_TYPE_BEZIER; -

I'd do the final line this way:
dcu->result = dcu->result && (splineSetting == SPLINEOBJECT_TYPE_BEZIER);
This will guarantee that the object is a SplineObject and using a Bezier setting. SPLINEOBJECT_TYPE could return a random value from another object type using the same description id value for another parameter.

Good point, I've updated the code. Cast-iron underpants are always prudent.
Thanks again for your help.
