Referring custom properties

[Anonymous]

Property Manager is one of my favorite new features in AC20. But how can I refer those properties for example in labels? In schedules and find and select -tool its easy and very powerful, but the advantage of using custom properties disappears if I have to use IFC-parameters or inside-object-parameters to get labels and other stuff look correct.

I believe these two clips will contain the answer you are looking for:

Thanks. Well it partially works. Those labels really can use the user-set-properties which is good. But what I'm really looking for is the variable-name of those properties so that I can use them everywhere I want.

If I define property "Fittings" in property manager and want to get this information somewhere automatically. So is it possible to just write some variable-name to text-field to use the value?

Problem is that for example those labels of the videos cannot get the door width or something else what I also need.

I am afraid that is not possible to do. What I think you are after is that these Property Names to be available as Autotext so you could just insert them anywhere with the Text Tool. But these are not available as Autotext.
You could make a wish though.
At this moment all you can do is try to create a GDL object that can access and display these Parameter Names and their values, just like those Labels do.
