You need to determine which marker first, either with a numerical index or by using the nearest time... Check Dan's classic:

I cannot seem to find the correct way to write expressions to find the comment's contents in a layer marker.
 
I think it should go something like this but it does not work.
 
m=thisLayer.marker;
 
if ((time >= m.comment("left").time) && (time < m.comment("right").time))
{
rotation=-90;
} 
else if ((time >= m.comment("right").time) && (time < m.comment("hold").time))
{
rotation=90;
}
else
{
rotation=0
}
 
Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.
