Question

changing an existing markers comment

I feel this must be a simple syntax error on my part but I'm stuck.

I want to edit the comment attribute of an existing marker. the .comment attribute is listed as read/write so I think this should be the correct way to do this.

app.project.activeItem.layers;

layerCollection[2].property("Marker").keyValue(2).comment = "helllo";

Assuming it's layer 1, which already has 2 existing markers, you could do it like this:

var markerVal = new MarkerValue("hello");

app.project.activeItem.layer(1).property("Marker").setValueAtKey(2, markerVal);

Thanks Dan. I appreciate it.

Is it possible to duration, time, chapter etc. this way?

hmmm. Im able to set all values but time and duration. MarkerValue appears to take only 5 arguments and those don't include a value for time and duration.


Duration works for me, but yes, you can't change a key's time (sorry, I didn't read your question closely enough). You have to delete the marker and re-create it to change its time.
