How to export custom Properties with Labels to DWG using XML conversion table

Hello everyone,

I created a Room Tag with the help of the tutorial "Displaying Properties with Labels",where the user can change the custom Properties with a tree in the UI.
http://gdl.graphisoft.com/tips-and-tricks/display-properties-with-labels

I am using XML convertor to export DWG files. It works well when I export built-in properties such as ROOM_NUMBER etc. but when I export the Parameter "myProperty" from the GDL it doesn't export the value assigned in the UI, it exports the default value of the Parameter.
My Question is, how to export the value of custom Properties with Labels assigned in UI?

Thanks,

Short answer: it is not possible.

You can only export gdl-parameters to DWG-Blocks...

workaround: request the property in the master-gdl and create a new parameter where you storing the property...
then you can convert tis new parameter to dwg-block attribute...

sounds f******g nerdy - it is...

Yours,
Klaus
