Get provided Dollar Parameters in a Panel

[moto3101]

Hello together,

is it possible to obtain all provided dollarParameters in a Panel even if they are not defined in the panel?

Example:
Lets assume we open a panel with two dollar parameters:

Code: Select all

ChildPanelOn("about.pnl", "about", makeDynString("$foo:bar", "$name:about"), 100,100);

But the about.pnl panel does not have any dollar Parameters, so the when running the code

Code: Select all

DebugTN(getDollarParamsFromPanel(myPanelName()));

in the init of the about.pnl, I will get an empty dyn_string.

Is there another way to still get all the dollarParams which were passed to the panel, even if they were not defined there?

Thanks in advance!

Try 'getDollarList()', this should work with childpanels.

Thanks for your reply, unfortunately this is not the right function. Please reconsider my example above.
The panel itself does not have any dollar parameters defined but is still called with a list of dollar parameters.
I wanted to know whether there is a way to still check during runtime which dollarparameters were passed on to the panel.

Thanks in advance!

Bumping this thread as my question is still open

inside the panel you can do

Code: Select all

this.dollars()

I use isDollarDefined and check on a case by case basis rather than obtaining a full list. This seems to work even if the parameters are not actually defined in the panel but only created by the calling function as you describe.

if (isDollarDefined("$A"))
