When I retrieve the node's data container and set values they do not seem to stick once the node is created. Any ideas?

Could you describe what you do more precisely? Do you allocate a node, insert something into its container and then insert it into an Xpresso tag?

Te question sould be:
How do I initialize the GvNode parameters ( originally created by the fact they are defined in the .res ) to a value in the Init function and ave it actually work so that when the port is created for that value it will already by defaulting to the value set in the Init function?

The Init() function canot be used for GV nodes. Use iCreateOperator() instead:

    
    
      virtual Bool iCreateOperator(GvNode *bn)  
      {  
        BaseContainer* data = bn->GetOpContainerInstance();   
        if (!data) return FALSE;
    
    
    
    
        data->SetVector(GVTEST_OFFSET, Vector(1,2,3));
    
    
    
    
        return SUPER::iCreateOperator(bn);  
      }
