Get Number of Comp Markers

[MichaelGum]

Is there a way to get the total number of comp markers with a script?

How about a way to advance to the time of the next comp marker with a script?

This works as of CC 2017, I think.

Number of comp markers:

var myProp = myComp.markerProperty;

alert (myProp.numKeys)

Move CTI to next comp marker:

var myComp = app.project.activeItem;

var myProp = myComp.markerProperty;

var myTime = myComp.time;

var n = 0;

if (myProp.numKeys > 0){

n = myProp.nearestKeyIndex(myTime);

if (myProp.keyTime(n) <= myTime) n++;

if (n > myProp.numKeys) n = 0;

}

if (n > 0){

myComp.time = myProp.keyTime(n)

}

Thank you Dan! I knew that comp markers were now accessible through scripts, but couldn't find what I was doing wrong since it is so new.
