VEX get ordered menu Labels

[papsphilip]

How can i get the ordered menu labels in VEX?

I know how to do this in Python but what about VEX?

By default you will fetch the tokens if you use chs() on an ordered menu parameter.
if you use chi() it will give you the index in the list.

Do you need to have 2 strings (the token and the label separately) ?
If not you can just copy the label value to the token value.

For fetching the actual label string.. I'm actually not sure for VEX from the top of my head.

Any way to do this in python ?

menu = node.parm('parm') // get the parm
index = menu.evalAsInt() // get the current index
label = menu.menuLabels()[index] // get the label of the index
  

try this
