It's me again. Any plans to update this for R23?

Pretty please in 8K with pixels on top.

I didn't translate the strings for the new Password dialog at all for now.

Requested from BRODZELi. Mockup: http://s18.postimg.org/wpqasky7d/Container_Enable_Button.jpg

I would add a "Checkmark" Checkbox to the Container that will hide/show the checkmark of the Container Object. The value can be retrieved using op.GetDeformState() in Python and with the "Basic Properties > Enabled" parameter in XPresso.

Seriously, who uses this?

These tabs could easily be merged into one tab.

Hey.
Is it possible to introduce some functionality that was in the old plugin from RuiMac, called Vault?
It was a very good plugin, but unfortunately, the latest version is dated 2012 and has not been updated since.
Although it was a paid one, it stopped working from R15 and higher.

Especially the 'Keep Vault Folded' function, which is very useful.
You probably know this plugin, but to remind, watch this short video:

Thanks.

This is due to a bug in CopyBranchesTo():

      // ...
      if (valid)
      {
        // Now copy the source branch to the destination branch.
        if (move_dont_copy)
        {
          GeListNode* node = branch_src.head->GetFirst();
          if (node)
          {
            if (doc_src) doc_src->AddUndo(UNDOTYPE_DELETE, node);
            if (doc_dst) doc_dst->AddUndo(UNDOTYPE_NEW, node);
            node->Remove();  // <--------------------- HERE
            branch_dst.head->InsertLast(node);
          }
        }
        else
        {
          if (doc_dst)
            doc_dst->AddUndo(UNDOTYPE_CHANGE, branch_dst.head);
          branch_src.head->CopyTo(branch_dst.head, flags, at);
        }
        break;
      }

Hey Niklas,

Any word you can share re: R21 compatibility, timeline? Love the plugin. Thank you.

Find people to translate the container object string files.

Double-clicking for protecting the Container object is not intuitive (but necessary for unlocking). A "Protect" button would be nice.

Hi Niklas,

first things first – it’s a very useful neat plugin. So thanks for making this one available for everyone.
Anyway, I have a hard time getting it to work without the plugin installed. Let me clarify what i mean by that.

1. I downloaded Version 1.1 (nr.containerobject-v1.1-r15-mac.zip) from your GitHub Page, unzipped it and put into the plugins folder inside my user library of OS X.
2. I started Cinema 4D (R16) and everything’s fine. The Plugin is recognized and works brilliant. However, i then collapsed for example a Null-Object to a container and saved the scene. After that I deleted the Plugin from the Cinema 4D Plugins folder, to test if it works when i reopen the saved scene without having the plugin installed (pretending as one user who only received the collapsed hierarchy scene without the installed plugin).
3. Here’s where it gets weird. Cinema 4D spits out a warning message, saying that a needed plugin is missing and saving the scene will lead to loss of any involved data coming from the missing plugin.
   Over at cgsociety.org I read the conversation about your plugin where they say it should work fine to reopen collapsed scenes even without having the plugin installed.

So what am i missing here? Is there some kind of clue to it?
Would be awesome to here from you. Til then take care.

Best regards,
Sebastian

I've translated the new Password strings with Google Translate, but I doubt the translation is very well.
