How to use Expressions in Graphic Overide

Anonymous
Not applicable
I have an Expression with "True/False" Data Type or "Area" Data Type and I want to represent in 3D elements with Graphic Overide which have ex. TRUE statement or <0

I managed to use only Expressions with "Numbers" in GO but Area, True/Fals, String, etc. doesn't seems to work.

Anybody have solutions about that!!!

The data types from the expression must match the data type used in the GO criteria.

I expect there is a mismatch in either criteria.

Without seeing your expression formula and the GO criteria --- we would just be guessing.

Screen shots of both DBX's would quickly point to the problem?

Actually, the code or formula is OK in expression.

With label Tool it works perfectly, but when I try to add properties in Graphic Overide it shows only properties with manually input numbers, not expressions with formula or TRUE/FALSE

Looks like there are no true/false properties in the property manager configured under the group you outlined (Kushtet).

There is a true/false property under the group Kushtet (1) -- Home Storie which you did not expand in GO. Did you try that one??
