Shape Scripts and Tagged Values

[Dines Madsen]

Hello ladies and gentlemen,

I have been looking for a way to display the _metatype of custom objects in order to show the type more easily. I have been developing a shape script that does this, but this has introduced a new issue with displaying tagged values. My question is:

How do I display all tags and tag values for an element? Is there a method or some kind of loop to go through all tagged value pairs and print them?

Thank you for your assistance.

Best Regards

Hi,

There isn't anything in the standard shapescript notation. You could however write an add-in which does it using the standard automation interface, element.TaggedValues returns the collection to iterate. You can then invoke the add-in from the shapescript.

As the shape script is in a context where it knows which tagged values are created by the MDG you could print them this way. Alas, if a user adds own TVs they will not appear.
