Example code for the id ID_FIELDFORCE_MODE in Ofieldforce

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

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

Resource File Code (Ofieldforce.res)


LONG  ID_FIELDFORCE_MODE
{
                        
    CYCLE 
    {         ID_FIELDFORCE_MODE_ADD; 
        ID_FIELDFORCE_MODE_ABSOLUTE; 
        ID_FIELDFORCE_MODE_DIRECTION; 
    }
}
            

Header File Code (Ofieldforce.h)

#ifndef OFIELDFORCE_H__
#define OFIELDFORCE_H__
enum
{
  ID_FIELDFORCE_MODE = 1000,  //First ID should start at 1000
    ID_FIELDFORCE_MODE_ADD = 1,
    ID_FIELDFORCE_MODE_ABSOLUTE = 2,
    ID_FIELDFORCE_MODE_DIRECTION = 3,
};
#endif	// OFIELDFORCE_H__

String File Code (Ofieldforce.str)

// C4D-StringResource
// Identifier	Text
STRINGTABLE
{
  ID_FIELDFORCE_MODE    "VelocityType";
