      Hi,

      when I start Cinema 4D from the Command Line ("..\..\CINEMA 4D 64 Bit.exe"), my startup
      layout is not loaded and one of my Plugins doesn't work as expected. To be more specific,
      PythonLibrary::Alloc() returns nullptr, but it works fine when I start Cinema 4D pinned from my
      Taskbar.

      Any idea what's the cause of this?

        Update: The problem seems to be that I didn't start Cinema 4D from its application directory, but from
        a subdirectory. Tested in R15 by the way.

          Hello,

          after a few tests with R16 I cannot confirm any problems with layouts starting Cinema from the command line. Please notice also that PythonLibrary is a undocumented and unsupported class that might have bugs.

          Best wishes,
          Sebastian
