It says it works with C4D R23, but i don;t see a "scripts" folder to put it in...?

Hey Sean. Go to C4D > Preferences... then click "Open preferences folder". That will open your system file manager and point you to your version of C4D's preferences. Place "Key Visibility" into Library > Scripts. Restart C4D.

Nice idea! If only c4d wouldn’t take forever to render transparency and show semi transparency of display tags in the viewport....

I like the idea. But guessing it doesn’t work with Redshift?

Agreed! It's surprising that it doesn't...

Unfortunately no, since Redshift doesn't recognize the Display tag. Is there an equivalent Redshift property that could be targeted? I'd make a Redshift variation if that would be helpful.

Hello Giuseppe: Unfortunately no, since Vray doesn't recognize the default Display tag's visibility (as far as I am aware). Is there an equivalent Vray property that could be targeted? I'd make a Vray variation if that would be helpful.

Doesn't seem to be working in R25, will there be an update? Great timesaver script!

Hey there Jesse, thanks for the note! I just uploaded a version 1.1 to aescripts.com with a folder for R25 versions of the scripts, and it should be working again. There were some changes to the tag codes in R25. If you want to manually update all three scripts, right click on your command bar icon, Edit Script... and find the line that says:

c4d.CallCommand(100004788, 50045) # add a new Display tag

Change it to:

c4d.CallCommand(100004788, 50046) # add a new Display tag

Basically, the 50045 changed to 50046. They should be on line 44 for the KeyVisibility, and on line 40 for the FadeIn and FadeOut scripts. Let me know if you need further help with this. Glad you are finding it helpful!

Thanks Reuben, that worked great. Works in R25, thanks a ton!

Hello! Sorry to hear you're running into an issue. can you do me a favor? Right click on your command bar icon and select "Edit Script..." and find the line that says:

c4d.CallCommand(100004788, 50045) # add a new Display tag

This example uses code "50045". What does your say?

Got it! I just posted a new v1.2 on aescripts that should resolve this issue. After some research, I was able to identify why some versions of C4D were not adding a Display Tag properly. This update handles all versions properly without requiring separate scripts for different C4D versions. Sorry for the inconvenience! If you don't see the updated v1.2 on your aescripst.com account yet, email me at [email protected] and I can send you a ZIP file directly. Thanks!
