      Hi folks,

      I'm trying to built a script that should (acts as a configurator) creates keyframes based on userdata with 4*4*7*7 possibilites.

      This should be possible with some for - in - loops, at least a smart girl told me so.
      The major thing I don't know to handle is adding a key and setting the value.

      Here is a test from what I've  got so far:

      xtag = obj.GetFirstTag()
        ctrack_dach = xtag.GetCTracks()[0]
        curve_dach = ctrack_dach.GetCurve()
        print "Number of keys: ", curve_dach.GetKeyCount()
        print curve_dach.GetKey(1).GetGeData()

      and this returns the correct value for the actual setting.
      But how do I add a key and set this ? Since there is no SetSeData()

      I mean I could set it like so

      xtag[c4d.ID_USERDATA, 3] = 2

      But I want to add a key and store the value in it.

      Any help is much apprecciated 🙂

          Well, looking through your hint I found out that it appears not to work for me.

          key = my_curve.GetKey(1)                     # for example the second existing keyframe
            print "GetGedata: ",my_curve.GetKey(1).GetGeData()
            print "GetValue: ",key.GetValue()
            print "######################"
            key.SetValue(curve_dach, 4)
            print "new GetValue: ", key.GetValue()
            print "new GetGeData: ", my_curve.GetKey(1).GetGeData()

          turns out to

          GetGedata: 1
          GetValue: 0.0
          ######################
          new GetValue: 4.0
          new GetGedata: 1

          If I manually make changes in the userdata, it always affects the result from GetGeData.
          Somehow I have to acces this ... Do you have another idea ?

          Cherio

          PS: Well, back in coding life is quite hard 😄, but I'm doing fine. Ty

          Edit: It works now

          I just tried rambostyle and used something that is not in the documentation

          key.SetGeData(my_curve, 4)

            Hi,

            It's not in the documentation because of an omission. GetGeData() is documented but SetGeData() is not.

            Thanks for pointing out that. If you find something not documented don't hesitate to report it.
