Right, SetData and GetData were initially built-in nodes and were later changed to compound nodes. You could log a bug to update the API to look after compounds as well.

But still it's bad that the property only returns these kind of nodes that are not used anywhere, no?

I was trying to get all the setData nodes in a specific compound and thought I could use the counterpart of the DataProviderNodes property, namely the DataModifierNodes. Testing this on a simple ICETree led to fails. So I wondered if I did something wrong and executed their python sample script. To my surprise this script worked. But the weird thing is what it generated. If you look into the ICETree it generates, you'll find a Set Data node that has a really strange interface (a ancient node?). Has anybody ever used this node? Tell me what you think. http://download.autodesk.com/global/docs/softimage2013/en_us/sdkguide/index.html?url=si_om/ICEDataModifierNode.html,topicNumber=si_om_ICEDataModifierNode_html Oh, and while we're on this topic, why doesn't the DataModifierNodes property return the 'Set One Data' nodes?????? How are we supposed to get them other than through their type?
