Hi folks!
I wan't to know if it's possible to get a list of all timeline markers. I only found this in the SDK:
_<_dt id="c4d.s.getfirstmarker"_>_ c4d.documents.GetFirstMarker( doc )
The first marker is nice, but I need to get to all of them. Any thoughts & ideas?

Hi TechnoFeather,
You have to use the GetNext() method to go through the list of markers in a loop.
Pseudocode:
Marker = c4d.documents.GetFirstMarker(doc)
while Marker:
Call marker related methods
Marker = Marker.GetNext()
end of loop
Let me know if you need more help.
