You should use UNDO_NEW on the things you insert. So if you inserting keys you should use the pointer to the key in AddUndo().

Howdy,
OK, so are you saying that this is wrong:
>
\> doc->AddUndo(UNDO_CHANGE,trackX); \> CKey \*keyX = trackX->GetCurve()->AddKey(time); if (!keyX) return FALSE; \> keyX->SetValue(trackX->GetCurve(),value.x); \>
... and it should be like this?:
>
\> CKey \*keyX = trackX->GetCurve()->AddKey(time); if (!keyX) return FALSE; \> keyX->SetValue(trackX->GetCurve(),value.x); \> doc->AddUndo(UNDO_NEW, keyX); \>
The confusing part for me is that it's adding a new key, but the function name to add the key doesn't have the word "Insert" in it. So my assumption was since it wasn't an "Insert" or an "Alloc" function, then use the first example with UNDO_CHANGE.
Sorry, but sometimes my obsessive compulsiveness surfaces and causes these little problems of comprehension. :oD
Adios,

As soon as you are creating an object and insert it into something you have to use this object with AddUndo() and UNDO_NEW. I agree it can be a bit confusing sometimes. But if you think about it the AddKey() function is doing exactly this, allocating and inserting keys
So yes this would be the correct one:

\> Key \*keyX = trackX->GetCurve()->AddKey(time); if (!keyX) return FALSE; \> doc->AddUndo(UNDO_NEW, keyX); \> keyX->SetValue(trackX->GetCurve(),value.x); \>

Howdy,
Well, upon further investigation I found the scale problem elsewhere in my code.
Yee-Ha! Now my tag has it's own AutoKey() function working perfectly in R9.6, R10 and R11!
Thanks, Matthias, for all your help and patience.

Hi Dan,
For your information, it turned out that AutoKey works for Tbaselist4D types only. Tags are of Tbaselist2d type. This should be fixed in a future update of Cinema.

FYI, this is fixed in CINEMA 4D R11.5.
