 +====== C4D content management ======
 +
 +C4D content preset is huge, and without custom management, it is hard to cross-manage all asset and pathes in projects.
 +  * software version cause app folder app different
 +  * user name and computer name cause user pref path different
 +Thus, best way to manually manage all the C4D content path, like asset, lib, plugins
 +
 +  * C4D default library location is at
 +    - C4D_app/library/browser
 +    - %appdata%\MAXON\CINEMA 4D R??_XXXX\library\browser
 +  * C4D additional custom location can be added using environment variable <code>C4D_BROWSERLIBS
 +D:\C4D_lib_extra;E:\C4D_lib_example_like_this
 +</code>
 +
 +  * ref:

 +
 +  * C4D plugin path can be customized as well like above but with environment variable <code>C4D_PLUGINS_DIR
 +D:\C4D_plugin_extra;E:\C4D_plugin_example_like_this
 +</code>
 +
 +  * C4D content's texture path management
 +    * for some asset or plugins, they have a texture folder included, and you need to manually (if not auto) add the texture folder path in C4D preference panel (Ctrl+E)
 +      * under Files tab, and put the texture folder path of missing content asset there
 +====== Problem and Fix ======

 +**Problem: C4D extrude tool fighting with wacom pen**
