Hey guys,

I am wrapping up a sticky object inside a Digital Asset and want it to pick up the current selected node's name (when created). ). Basically I want my DA to behave (UI wise) as a sticky object when selected (or, at least, when created).

So far I have a single node inside the DA - sticky1 object. I made it editable (I've got sticky1 listed in Editable Nodes field, under Basic tab, Operator Type Properties). Now when I create the DA, before the DA node is created in the network, I get the same creation dialog as if I was creating a regular sticky object (a small cross hair with 3 coordinates). That is half what is desired - now I need the sticky node inside my DA to pick up the selected geometry node's name and (in best scenario) coordinates.

I tried playing a bit with OnCreate scripts but it didn't get me far yet.

Any tips how I can get that data?

Thanks,
Vlad
