i have tried use MatrixToHPB but it doesnt work. and then i tried VectorToHPB and it works. but the third coloumn always "0". How come? this is my code
import c4d
#Welcome to the world of Python

def main() :
  pass  #put in your code here
 
  a = op.GetObject().GetMg().off
  b = c4d.utils.MatrixToHPB(a)
  print a

and how to convert values to deg?

Hello,

as the name suggests MatrixToHPB() must be used with a Matrix, not with the translation vector as in your code. And as said before, turning the position into a rotation using VectorToHPB() does not seem to make sense. As you can read in the documentation, VectorToHPB() will always return a rotation with bank set to zero.

best wishes,
Sebastian

Hello,

the first case:
you´ll need to feed the matrix not the offset vector from this matrix

a = op.GetObject().GetMg()
b = c4d.utils.MatrixToHPB(a)

the second case:
euler angle always gives you a zero banking back it calculates the direction with a fixed rotation around this direction

a = op.GetObject().GetMg().off
b = c4d.utils.VectorToHPB(a)

for a complex track you might think about flipping conditions or quaternions.

rad to degree: c4d.utils.Deg( r )
or
rad = HPB * math.pi / 180

Hope this helps?
Best wishes
Martin

hello Martin.

yes, it helps. but i still cant transform to degree. it shows "a float is required".

can u help me out?

hello s_bach

i'm sorry, been off for a while. yes it's answered, but not all.

if i type  c4d.utils.Deg(b)
it shows in console "TypeError : a float is required"

Hello Yefta,

sorry my answer was a little sloppy.
This should answer your question ...

  
  rad = c4d.Vector(0,1,1)  
  deg = c4d.Vector(c4d.utils.Deg(rad.x),c4d.utils.Deg(rad.y),c4d.utils.Deg(rad.z))  
  print deg  
    
  deg2 =  180/math.pi*rad  
  print deg2  

Best wishes
