How to request values of custom properties in gdl?

[talmacsi_petrolterv]

I can request the list of all custom properties:

n = REQUEST ("PROPERTIES_OF_PARENT", "", parentProperties)

This gives the guid, GroupName, PropertyName. So I know the basic info about the required property.

But the value request requires "id", here:

mm = REQUEST("PROPERTY_VALUE_OF_PARENT","id",4,0,0,kod)

If I put the guid there, it shows an error message.

I cannot find any other approach.

Or maybe the "PROPERTY_VALUES_OF_PARENT" would be good, but that uses DICT dictionaries - and in the gdl reference guide you can't find proper examples of how to use those dictionaries.

And actually, the opposite direction would be good also: to get the gdl parameters in custom properties.

Nope. Unfortunately.

But the object works, after all; and updates with opening.

If your script to request the values is in the parameter script of the object, I think you have to open the object to force the parameter script to run.

But there is a command you could add to a menu or toolbar in your Work Environment.

That might work?

I takes a little while to run though.

Or maybe have the script in the Master script and the rebuild & regenerate might work (I am not sure about that one).

It works well. Takes a quite while; but works. Thanks!

The master script workaround is a little bit misterious to me. Never used. The gdl reference guide is not so helpful to me. Do you know a good, comprehensive summary about it?

No, sorry.

It is just the master script is always run, even on a screen refresh I believe.

The parameter script is only run when you change a parameter, i.e. open the object settings.

Most things in the parameter script work in the master script as well as far as I know.

Would you mind sharing the Master Script and the 2D Script? I'm with the same problem but can't solve this.
