              it is the example LookAtCamera ,  LookAtCamera::GetDDescription(), all of the written description are created the same way with a check for performance, need to understand how this works, if there is no specific explanation , is it safe to do the same with all created description? (so I just write them the same way and forget about them) , or this is written in specific situations

                You mean the

                if (!singleid ||...
                

                part?
                Yes, you should do it exactly like it is done in the lookatcamera example. As Niklas said, it's a performance optimization, in case C4D is asking for a single description only.

                    sorry for asking again, but I found that I didn't know yet how to adjust the format of data "question (2)" , the above link that I posted was for Dialogs, didn't notice this, so hope you may reply with a simple example to question (2)

                    edit:I find that DESC_COLUMNS is doing the job, but what about putting stuff in an irregular way, like:

                    button1    button2    button3
                    button4
                    button5    button6
                    button7

                    edit2: I would love to know how to create something similar to this Dialog http://www.andrewnoske.com/wiki/Cinema_4D_-_my_C%2B%2B_plugins_-_add_text
                    in GetDDescription() , the combo box, the radio group, etc..
