    The name is not in quotation marks. So it is a variable. Davids trick will not work in this case. You have to look in master script, parameter list or parameter script, which values the variable/parameter may be.

    On the other side you would not need to replace a macro, if you could add your new one and add its name to the available list of values of [typ_ouv].

    Try to contact kimweb.de / cadclick.com . I met these German guys at bau2019 trade show in Munich. They told me, that they convert 3d shapes from other cad software by native GDL shapes like cone, tube, cylind into gsm objects. Maybe they can provide an interface for you. Send best wishes from the gdl-door-guy from dormakaba.

    Another soltution is maybe to convert your stuff to binary gsm files.

    in reply to: Label option assoc vs "dead"? #4446

    A label can not have a GLOB_ID. So you have to add a parameter to get the text to label (or is it every time “x”).
    In GDL you can request, if the label is associated. If it is not, you use the parameter.

    Try GLOB_ELEVATION or the operation SYMB_POS_Z – GLOB_CSTORY_ELEV for objectplacementheight.

    No. You can control just the whole array content

    “If I choose a door subtype wit “GS” in the name, I will get no sill’s tabpage.”
    And if I do that, I get a very lot of subtype parameters, I do not need inside my object. I haven’t changed the subtype a long time ago, so it has to be something else.
    I think, I have deleted a GS parameter with a default value, that disables the ui page provided by the subtype. If the subtype wouldn’t be inside of a DLL, I could open and have a look on it.

    I know. This is a 2 year neartlly fulltime programming job. I used the GS macros so far and got NO ghost UI page. Now, since I have deleted definively all GS macro calls I get the UI page of unknown source.

    As long as doors, which are one of the most complex building components, have to have one element in CAD 1024 is rarely not enough. It is not the aim to throw 1000 paras into one interface, but to be able to ask and STORE each information necessary to have all values for a proper configuration of most possibles door variations. E.g. If just one door in your project does not have the possibility to record and list parameters for a door closer, your door list will fail.
