@C4DS @kbar @ferdinand - Thank you so much for the in-depth responses.

@kbar I'll see if I can get my employer to pony up for a license for Call Python as that seems like the simplest root. Although, this is potentially a light enough lift that I can finally make the transition into C++ development.

@ferdinand Helpful to know that I won't be able to interrupt the save process (probably a good thing from the user POV).

Realizing I never responded to this Thank you @m_magalhaes, @mikegold10, and @PluginStudent.

I ended up manually making a list of the parameters I wanted to copy and iterating through all of them. Not ideal, but at least glad to know there wasn't an automated method I was missing.

@s_bach & @zipit - Thank you both for the thoughtful replies!

I think I'll opt for the status bar for most user-facing feedback, and console logging for anything bigger. Watching the "What could possibly go wrong?" talk now.

Hi @dskeithbuck thanks for reaching us.

In fact, it's written in the C++ BaseDocument - Selection Manual but I agree maybe a note in the function will be welcome.

IN any case, I will add a note for the python doc.
Thanks again.

Cheers,
Maxime.

Hi, this is fixed in R21.1 SP1.

Cheers,
Maxime.

@m_adam said in HTTP Requests with `maxon` API:

Hi @dskeithbuck thanks a lot for trying to use the new Maxon API.

Thank you so much for the working sample code, that answers my question. I look forward to switching over to the Maxon API for URL requests once these kinks get worked out.

@m_adam said in Distributing Python Plugins that have Dependencies:

As an Idea but didn't try and will not have the time to do it today (so if you try, do it at your own risks), but you could try to install things using directly the python executable from the resource folder

I'm moving onto different parts of development, but I'll likely want to investigate this later and will post an update if I do. Thanks!

I'm not sure it's a bad habit or what's the difference. There's maybe type conversion, i don't know.

Or maybe with the code optimization there's no difference at the end.

I just wanted to add my 2 cents to have bool and not value xD

Cheers

Hi Donovan, unfortunately, there is no change in this regards. The best way is still to check for an empty return value or either creates your own dialog.

I've filled a feature request.
Cheers,
Maxime.

Hi Maxime - thank you very much for the response, and I'm glad to hear you're considering it for the future.

There is no way to get a filtered list of objects visible in the timeline. Sorry.

@m_adam
Thanks. You are right. It didn't exceed 5GB. I guess 5GB is when it is uncompressed.
I was able to build the plug-ins now.

For everybody interested in syntax highlighting, nodeBB is pretty smart in recognizing the language you're using by simply checking your code snippet, but in case you really want to hard-code the language set simply use the following line when starting a code snippet:

where <language> can be anything like python or c++
