Adding Window Parameters

Anonymous

After you have created your new window, how can you add extra parameters? I created a couple of new window types but forgot to include the "Finish" parameter. I would like to add this parameter to the window settings but don't know how?

You will need to open the GDL object and add a new parameter in the parameter list.
Make sure it is a text type parameter so you can type in the name of any finish you want in the object settings parameter list.
You can also add a VALUE list in the parameter script so you can have a list of finishes to choose from to save typing and errors.

You are now getting into the realm of GDL scripting.

Hello,
You can also add a VALUE list in the parameter script so you can have a list of finishes to choose from to save typing and errors.
For example in the value script;
values "finish" "Paint A", "Paint B", "Paint C", custom
The name of the parameter in this example is finish
