Hi,

i worked around, and had read, that i can't add keyframes normal in COFFEE. SO i try to make this with the help of a COFFEE Expression Tag.

> \> var coffeetag = AllocTag(Tcoffeeexpression); \> cam->InsertTag(coffeetag); \>

this adds a coffetag to my camera.

Now i want to know how i can adding something into this Tag.

e.g.

> \> var cam = new(array,4,2); \> \> cam[0][0] = vector(100.0,100.0,100.0); \> cam[0][1] = vector(90.0,0.0,90.0); \> \> cam[1][0] = vector(-100.0,-100.0,-100.0); \> cam[1][1] = vector(-90.0,0.0,-90.0); \> \> cam[2][0] = vector(100.0,100.0,100.0); \> cam[2][1] = vector(90.0,0.0,90.0); \> \> cam[3][0] = vector(-100.0,-100.0,-100.0); \> cam[3][1] = vector(-90.0,0.0,-90.0); \> \> var fps = 30; \> var current_frame = doc->GetTime()->GetFrame(fps); \> op->SetPosition(cam[int(current_frame)][0]); \> op->SetRotation(cam[int(current_frame)][0]); \>

This actualized automatically for every frame a new position.
Now i want to know how i can add such in my COFFEE TAG

Ok I tryed it. Now i get the Content of the Tag, but I don't know how to change its

It works very well, but it doesn't change anything on my Coffetag on my Camera

I also tryd some other IDs, because I don't know why ID 1000

so I tryd

Just use the container operator #.
