Loading .3ds-Files without interrupting Program flow

[Stefan]

Hi farshizzo !

I tried your plug-in and it works quite fine. Although I still have a problem with the blocking-version of the add-command. I will try it again later. But I have another question concerning the loading of 3ds-files. I use code that looks similar to this one:

tile = viz.add('myTile')
child = tile.getChild('childOfMyTile')
child.parent(tile)

Because I shuffle around large amounts of data, I might be forced to remove the object ( -> tile.remove() ) and load it again later, using the code above. When I load the object again, the function getChild produces an error (child not found).

Do you have an idea what might cause the error ?

Thanks,
Stefan
