In this wish of raised the issue of reading the names of complex profiles in the label.

It would also be nice to be able to read the names of complex profiles so these could also be reliably labeled.

I did a label and wanted to have it concluded a name of profile of the wall. I tried to use the parameter "ac_wall_profile_name", but did not receive a positive result. Try to you. Perhaps you have more experience in the GDL.

Information on "ac_wall_profile_name" is here:

Perhaps someone has already achieved a positive result? Or can the distinguished representatives of ArchiCAD Development - GDL Team will indicate the right path?
In general, such a question. How to write a query in which the label shows the name of the complex profile?

Thank you in advance.

I have been using:

ac_beam_profile_name

I forget where I found out about this one. I think I started using it in AC11 and it still works in 13.

See selfGDL. Maybe google translation helps. 😉

Matthew, Frank, thanks for the response!
Although you did not say how to write code, but pushed me to think again.
The fact, that I thought I would have to make this request:

REQUEST ("ASSOCLP_PARVALUE", expr, name_or_index, type, flags, dim1, dim2, p_values)

It turned out all the easier. In the label need to create parameters ac_wall_profile_name, ac_beam_profile_name, ac_colu_profile_name.
Then can use them.
For example:

TEXT2 0, 0, ac_beam_profile_name
