Thank you for the answer Manuel

I'm writing a script that gathers the node information of a Redshift material and spits out a JSON file that can be read by other 3D programs with Redshift installed. It's working great for most values, but attributes of type Vector2d64 trip Python up. When it comes to attributes like "scale" and "offset" on a texture node, GetDefaultValue() from the graph module returns UnknownDataType(net.maxon.parametrictype.vec<2,float64>) and I can't figure out a way to get around it. I did manage to get MaxonConvert() to return the X value of these ports, but no luck on the Y value so far.

This script from the PluginCafe Github demonstrates what I mean. If you unhide the "scale" port on a texture node and select it, the script returns the UnknownDataType for the portValue variable. Any help grabbing those values would be hugely appreciated.
