On my top node I have added a Property. This Property is now visible on all the sub nodes. But I don't want to write text in the property every time I create a new node, because it should be the same every time for all sub nodes.
So, can I make the value recurs down to all sub nodes? If not is it possible to say something like [#topnode.property] (It's is used to send a value to a UserControl)?
or how should I do this?
While writing this I think that i could maybe do it in the UserControl with something like this: Pseudo: if node.property = "" then Variable = topnode.property else Variable = node.property

if node.property = "" then
Variable = topnode.property
else
Variable = node.property
What is your opinion on this approach?

I think the syntax for a recursive parameter is [$YourPropertyAlias] but I'm not 100% sure. Try it out.
Hi Lars,
You can find info on paramter syntax, including recursive paramters, at the following location

Many thanks

Thank you both, I should just use [$YourPropertyAlias]
Thanks Matt, for the link to a good ressouce
