Example code for the id VEL_USE in OP_Velocity

Note that this is not the actual code from the OP_Velocity file.

This code is just an example to show you how to add a similar control to your own description.

Resource File Code (OP_Velocity.res)


LONG  VEL_USE
{
INPORT  ;  EDITPORT  ;                          
    CYCLE 
    {         VEL_USE_DIRSPEED; 
        VEL_USE_SPEED; 
        VEL_USE_DIR; 
    }
}
            

Header File Code (OP_Velocity.h)

#ifndef OP_VELOCITY_H__
#define OP_VELOCITY_H__
enum
{
  VEL_USE = 1000,  //First ID should start at 1000
    VEL_USE_DIRSPEED = 1,
    VEL_USE_SPEED = 2,
    VEL_USE_DIR = 3,
};
#endif	// OP_VELOCITY_H__

String File Code (OP_Velocity.str)

// C4D-StringResource
// Identifier	Text
STRINGTABLE
{
  VEL_USE    "Change";
    VEL_USE_DIRSPEED    "Speed&Direction";
    VEL_USE_SPEED    "Speed";
    VEL_USE_DIR    "Direction";
}
