Hi

 

Your if statement is testing CF.Value, not CF.

Thanks Ben,

I also used a custom parameter with an "Fc" 
_expression_ in the past but I'm just curious to know why it doesn't work like 
this with "In_UpdateContext.CurrentFrame;" 
as XSI logged the correct frame ???

I pass in the current frame as a parameter to the scripted op and then
set that parameter to have an _expression_ of "Fc". So it would be
In_UpdateContext.parameters("currentFrame").value instead.
