Thank you John!

I’ve been trying to figure out your script. But I coudn’t get inObject and inLayer to show up on my python node. For anyone with the same problem: link object and layer to the python node ( which will get you Input3 and Input 4 ). Now put in this script and you should be good to go. Test by dragging something on your object with the xpresso tag.

#This script will set the layer to every
#child object to the same layer as the
#parent object (the object which contains
#the xpresso tag)

import c4d

def SetChildLayers(inObj):
for child in inObj.GetChildren():
child.SetLayerObject(Input4)
SetChildLayers(child) #recursive

def main():
SetChildLayers(Input3)

I’m working in R18 but still get this problem. Any fixes?

Hey,

I see you posted this a few years back and I would love to know if you found a way to make a nice skincut animation. How’d you do it?
