As for now, there is no way to retrieve the active TCP from the robot controller.
I would personally know how to add that with certain robot controllers, but unfortunately for Kuka, it uses the "KukaVarProxy" on which we don't have much control.
So I'm not so sure it's possible the "traditional way".
But there might be a solution if you are knowledgeable enough with Kuka (which I'm not).
Is there a way to retrieve that information using socket messaging or any other communication you could access using our API?
If it's the case, you could open a socket communication using Python (C++, C#), grab the TCP value, and apply it to RoboDK.
Here's the API documentation.

Dear Jeremy,
thank you very much for those information!
For me it is the first time working with KUKA as well as RoboDK, so at present I am not sure which type of communication is available.
Anyhow, it is goode news that there is in general a way to grab the TCP values.
Thank you for your help, at least I have a new point of reference and an idea what to search for.
