So, int for type, 8 groups pf RGB(A?), position float ... Both the ICE gradient and the fxtree gradient have 16 colors though, with the former also having mid points in addition to the positions. Do I have to set those? What about the number of markers? Do I create an actual array of parameters and pass it, or just create a bunch of parameters and pass the first as with .AddColor? The number of possible combinations to try without XSI giving you any real feedback boggles the mind.
