How is NBIT_CKEY_ACTIVE used?

[A Former User]

How does one use NBIT_CKEY_ACTIVE? I see in the documentation that it's the "Active point of animation path in editor." I couldn't find any examples that use it successfully however. I found it used in this old post on CGSociety by Per-Anders from 2013, but I couldn't get it to work. Here's the code I'm using to test it:

import c4d

def main():
    tracks = op.GetCTracks()
    for track in tracks:
        print "*"*100
        print track.GetName()
        curve = track.GetCurve()
        count = curve.GetKeyCount()
        for x in range(0,count):
            key = curve.GetKey(x)
            print "Key %s: NBIT_CKEY_ACTIVE: %s"%(x,key.GetNBit(c4d.NBIT_CKEY_ACTIVE))

if __name__=='__main__':
    main()

Thank you.

Hi @blastframe the NBIT_CKEY_ACTIVE is set when the animation path key is selected in the viewport (and not in the Timeline)
