Haha, me again
Hopefully someone will answer all my question Tongue

Is there any way to make a BaseObject "Invisible" without having to set the Render & Editormode ?
For example when i create a Deformer with the PythonGenerator, i don't want the Parent, which actually gets deformed, to be seeable anymore, because the PythonGenerator returns the Deformd Object. Or is there any easier or better way to do that ?

cheers, nux

Well I can only tell you the manual way, I don't know if it is possible to do it via python:
Put a display tag on your object and recuce the visibilty to zero percent.

Maybe just one way of thousands ...

Yea, I would need exactly this, but it would be definetly better, without that Tag

import c4d

obj = doc.GetActiveObject ()
tag = c4d.BaseTag(c4d.Tdisplay)

obj.InsertTag(tag)

c4d.EventAdd()

Half the way is done

and it's a script not a tag, therefore, no main () Tongue

Well, i think having a main() in a Script to makes the Code even more readable.
Btw, i thought you wanted to post it as a PythonGenerator Code.

Did you take a look at the Cloner examples ? Or do you already have got that skills ?

So, maybe i can make a Tag invisible ?
