Using create_marker in batch view timebar

Is it possible to add markers with the python API on the timebar in the batch to show the handles the operator?

I would tend to think the way to do this would actually be in/out marks on the Render node. Any time its selected, it would show them. Same with a source clip.

<PyRenderNode>.in_mark
<PyRenderNode>.out_mark

I dont think markers exist on a naked Batch timebar… only on source clips

thanks this works fine, I wish I could have the same on the write to file.

This is correct.

Maybe submit a feature request for a PyNodeNote object? Maybe you could have in/outs just as text in note? Currently a note node has a get_value() & set_value() but it doesnt do what we want. Seems to just return the PyNode object.

Oh! What about a PyCompassNode around the Write node with the shot name, in & outs in the name?

This is an similar ongoing request that appears to have been floundering for 3 years.

I thought there was one for being able to see the markers on the batch timeline, no matter what node you are in.
