The following example shows all the available choices for the "Front colour" finish type of the object after it was placed on a scene:

public bool OnObjectPlaceAfter(int unused)
{
    // Get connection to KitchenDraw
    var appli = new Appli();

    // Get placed object
    Scene.Object placedObject = appli.CallParamsInfo.ActiveObject;

    // Parse object's finishes config string
    var finishesConfig
        = new Scene.FinishesConfig(placedObject,
            placedObject.FinishesConfigString);

    Appli.CatalogFinishType frontColorFinishType;

    // Obtain particular finish type from finishes config
    if (finishesConfig.TryGetFinishTypeByName("Front colour",
        out frontColorFinishType))
    {
        string finishesList
            = string.Join("\r\n", frontColorFinishType.Finishes);

        MessageBox.Show("Available front colours:\r\n" + finishesList);
    }
    else
    {
        // The object doesn't have a "Front colour" finish type.
        // Nothing to do here.
    }

    // Return true to indicate that the plugin execution was ok 
    // and the placement should be proceeded.
    return true;
