           Hi!

    How do I receive the values of userdatas. I found some snippets here in the forum, but the most code snippets iterates through the user datas, but thats not what I want.

    I know the exact id of the element and want to receive the value. Can anyone of you check my code?

    > \>                DynamicDescription\* dd = ot->GetDynamicDescription(); #ot is the BaseList2D object \>                DescID id(DescLevel(first_id)), DescLevel(second_id)); \>                const BaseContainer \*t = dd->Find(id); \>                if(t) #is TRUE \>                { \>                     if(!ot->GetParameter(id, data, 0)) #GetParameter returns False... Why? \>                          GePrint("failed"); \>                } \>

    Thank you very much :)

    bye.

    The creation of your DescID is wrong. You have to make sure the type of the DescLevel is set correctly. Here an example for a Real type userdata with the ID of 1:

    cheers,

    Matthias, you wrote:

    const DescID id(DescLevel(ID_userdata, DTYPE_SUBCONTAINER, 0), DescLevel(1, DTYPE_REAL, 0));

    But what if I don't know that the element is of type Real? I just tried '0' but that did not work.

    Any suggestions? Thanks.

    You can browse the Userdata:

    Hi!

    A combination of your solution and the solution of Matthias would be cool.

    Not to browse through the userdatas and the condition I don't know the type of the element.
