Example Code
The following code does not use the correct values when setting the data. You should check directly in C4D for the correct values that you should use in place of the ones that are shown.
This code is just to show you how to access the values for getting and setting the parameters.
Python

Buttons
This node has buttons. Buttons can manually be executed by calling the following code
Python
c4d.CallButton(tag,c4d.ID_CA_IKSPLINE_HANDLE_ADD)
c4d.CallButton(tag,c4d.ID_CA_IKSPLINE_HANDLE_CREATE)
c4d.CallButton(tag,c4d.ID_CA_IKSPLINE_HANDLE_REMOVE)
