Firstly I love the Value{2} command as it allows me to use an integer parameter but make it work like a string parameter. This has been very helpful recently with auto labels referencing Building Materials so that if the BM Name is altered the label updates automatically and correctly.
The problem I have is allowing for composites with varying numbers of skins. Forgive me I am being a bit lazy asking this question be thoroughly exploring tricky workarounds.
currently i have the code picking up the number of skins (iSkins) and then I am writing something like this:
if iSkins = 1 then
Value{2} “parameter”, 1, array[1]
endif
if iSkins = 2 then
Value{2} “parameter”, 1, array[1], 2, array[2]
endif
and so on.
where i’d rather do it using; for n = 1 to iSKins ……put….. next n.
but obviously this doesn’t work with the Value{2} command as it doesn’t with many other commands.it would be great if we could use get and put functions with everything.
any workarounds?
i haven’t tried anything else yet because.
thanks
