So you need to set up a property for the model name and allow that to take text as input.<BR /> <BR /> Here are a lot of in depth videos about properties and how they work <A href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnXY6vLUwlWWXsVJ3fRGNxuKLoHPkpx1I" target="_blank"><LINK_TEXT text="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ...
