Currently only labels and zone stamps can read the properties of their parent objects. Many times it would be useful for any GDL object to see their own properties. In many cases older objects have parameters for values that would be better expressed...

Since this is obviously very useful functionality and implementing it in GDL is so limited and painful, I made a Wish to make it work 'natively' in AC: https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Wishlist/Bring-standard-polyline-and-polygon-editing-tools-to-...
