Have rechecked, yes you are right.

Let's see if that works.

it could be connected as an output then, right?

The data is created the other way.
It is not that my operator needs the data from the property.
The operator creates the mesh and then puts some infos about the mesh into
the property.

 if you need anything, you should connect it as an input.  Is there s

 Hi


I have created a custom operator.
In the update function of the COP I get the myobject.polymsh as context.
But I need to access a custom property that is attached to myobject.

So far I found two functions which usually return the object.
CRefArray GetOwners
X3DObject GetParent3DObject
But both are stated as:
"If this function is called from the cb_Operator_Update Update context of
a custom operator it returns an empty array"

No explanation why.

Any hints how to solve this issue?

Last chance would be perhaps to hack a little bit. Get the name
myobject.polymsh as string, cut the polymsh and use that to create a new
X3DObject?
