Getting Tokens and Labels of Menu Parameter in VEX

[Christian S]

Hi everyone,

I have a menu parameter that is filled using a script. The menu looks like this.

"token", "Label"

"p", "P"

"flow", "Flow"

In the VEX code I want to get the selected Token of the parameter. 

int id = chi("attributes");
string name = chs("attributes");

Both of these return the selected item index but not the token or the label.

Is there a way to get the token of a menu parameter using VEX?

Thx!

It is not possible to get parameter labels in VEX. Here the token matrix:

ch("integer_menu")  // Converted index.
chi("integer_menu") // Index.
chs("integer_menu") // Converted index.

ch("ordered_menu")  // Converted index.
chi("ordered_menu") // Index.
chs("ordered_menu") // Value.

ch("string_menu")   // Converted value.
chi("string_menu")  // Converted value.
chs("string_menu")  // Value.

Thx, unfortunatly, it seems that this doesn't work with "scripted" ordered menu.

I switched to a string menu and used the same script and now it works. Really puzzeling but for now it seems fine.

Many thx!
