I can't open the gradient gizmo's options pallet when creating it with AddCustomGui() function.
SetLayoutMode(c4d.LAYOUTMODE_MAXIMIZED) does not work.Example of the various things I've tried to maximize the gizmo:
import c4d,os,sys from c4d import plugins, utils, bitmaps, gui, documents Plugin_ID = 1000010 #Testing id ONLY!!!!!!! MY_GRADIENT = 10001 class MyDialog_Gui(gui.GeDialog) : myGradGizmo = None gradient = c4d.Gradient() def CreateLayout(self) : #Create the gradient gui here #We will change it's options in the InitValues() method gSettings = c4d.BaseContainer() #gSettings.SetBool(c4d.LAYOUTMODE_MAXIMIZED, True) #<---Wrong!!! #gSettings.SetLong(c4d.LAYOUTMODE_MAXIMIZED, 2) #<---Wrong!!! #gSettings.SetLayoutMode(c4d.LAYOUTMODE_MAXIMIZED) #<---Wrong!!! self.myGradGizmo = self.AddCustomGui(MY_GRADIENT, c4d.CUSTOMGUI_GRADIENT, "", c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT|c4d.BFV_CENTER, 0, 0, gSettings) return True def InitValues(self) : #To change the gradient gui we have to first create a gradient object and fill it with data #Then we copy the settings to the CUSTOMGUI_GRADIENT we created in the CreateLayout() method self.gradient.InsertKnot(col = c4d.Vector(0.0, 0.0, 0.0), pos = 0.0,index = 0) self.gradient.InsertKnot(col = c4d.Vector(1.0, 1.0, 1.0), pos = 0.5,index = 1) self.gradient.InsertKnot(col = c4d.Vector(1.0, 1.0, 1.0), pos = 1.0,index = 2) self.gradient.SetData(c4d.GRADIENT_INTERPOLATION, c4d.GRADIENT_INTERPOLATION_NONE) self.gradient.SetData(c4d.GRADIENT_MODE, c4d.GRADIENTMODE_COLOR) #self.gradient.SetLayoutMode(c4d.LAYOUTMODE_MAXIMIZED) #<---Wrong!!! #self.myGradGizmo.SetLayoutMode(c4d.LAYOUTMODE_MAXIMIZED) #<---Wrong!!! self.myGradGizmo.SetGradient(self.gradient) return True def Command(self, id, msg) : return True def CoreMessage(self, id, msg) : return True #------------------------------------------------------------------------- # MyDialog_Main --- Where the plugin stuff happens--Don't edit this part #------------------------------------------------------------------------- class myDialog_Main(plugins.CommandData) : dialog = None def Execute(self, doc) : #Create the dialog if self.dialog is None: self.dialog = MyDialog_Gui() return self.dialog.Open(dlgtype=c4d.DLG_TYPE_ASYNC, pluginid=Plugin_ID, xpos=-1, ypos=-1) def RestoreLayout(self, sec_ref) : #Manage the async dialog so it can be docked in the UI if self.dialog is None: self.dialog = MyDialog_Gui() return self.dialog.Restore(pluginid=Plugin_ID, secret=sec_ref) if __name__ == "__main__": path, fn = os.path.split(__file__) #bmp = bitmaps.BaseBitmap() #bmp.InitWith(os.path.join(path, "res/icons/", "None")) #Uses a folder called "icons" inside the "res" folder to hold the icon plugins.RegisterCommandPlugin(Plugin_ID, "LinkBox Example", 0, None, "", myDialog_Main())-ScottA

I was also struggling with the gradient UI.
It is now working, also thanks to this above example.Except, there are 6 knots in the gradient and not 3 as defined.
When you drag a knot you can see another one beneath it.
It seems every knot is inserted twice?What am I doing and the example above doing wrong?

Hello,
SetLayoutMode() is not available in Python. But it is possible to set a value for CUSTOMGUI_LAYOUTMODE in the BaseContainer used with AddCustomGui() :
bc = c4d.BaseContainer() bc.SetInt32(c4d.CUSTOMGUI_LAYOUTMODE,c4d.LAYOUTMODE_MAXIMIZED) gradient = self.AddCustomGui(id=4000, pluginid=c4d.CUSTOMGUI_GRADIENT, name="gradient", flags=c4d.BFH_LEFT, minw=400, minh=20, customdata = bc)The behavior that two knots are inserted instead of one is indeed a bug. A bug report was filed.
best wishes,

Thanks for the reply.
It is good to know it is a bug.
I spend about a day debugging/trying/testing before asking the question this forum.
