Hi,

I have created a template object with materials in a C4D file. Through a command plugin, I now want to insert this object at a given position in a second scene.

If I do

  
MergeDocument(doc, objectFile, SCENEFILTER_OBJECTS, NULL);   

I end up with the only the object in my scene, but not the materials.
If I use

  
MergeDocument(doc, objectFile, SCENEFILTER_MATERIALS, NULL);   

before, then I have both the materials and the objects, but the object tag is no longer linked to the material.

By the way, using

  
MergeDocument(doc, objectFile, SCENEFILTER_MERGESCENE, NULL);   

results in nothing inserted at all.
What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks, Juergen

Thanks affa!
That works, but know I have the material twice in the new scene ... very strange.

My mistake .. the second one was a residual code part that loaded the material again seperately. So it now works perfectly!
