Hi,

We use a custom message on an analysis to display a meaningful message for the user. In order to provide more information, we need to display the value of a presentation variable together with text. I tried @{var}, '@{var}', @{var}{default} and several other possibilities, but the result is that this is displayed literal.

Does anybody know the syntax for this?

Kind regards, Richard

    Hi @R.Hagebeek ,

    Unfortunately, it's not possible to reference variables in the custom message.

    As a workaround, you can use conditions in a dashboard to control whether to hide your analysis and display an alternative Text object (which supports variables).

    Hi Federico,

    Thank you for your answer. With that in mind, I prefer a more generic message instead of conditional display on the dashboard. Nevertheless thanks for the suggestion.
