Hi guys,I really got stuck, maybe you can help me out.
In ResEdit, I created a Custom Element(TEXTURNAME [1000484]).
Now, how can I access its Container or at least the Properties like the image, the user has chosen? I read the SDK Docu up and down and vice versa, even the customgui_texturename.h did not give any usable info, as well as this forum.What I want to do is, let the User choose a Bitmap and pass this relative path to a variable.
Best Regards, Robert...

Appendix:
Based on the CPP SDK Docs, I found some useful Info, but it's still not enough. I really wish, there would be more examples for particular Elements, especially for Custom-Elements.
Maybe, it's just a simple mistake, but the println never puits something out...>

You can't access custom GUI elements in COFFEE. For some there exist workarounds, but in general not.

Oh, thanks.
But could you eventually point me to a workaround then?
Would be very kind

In dialogs you can't access custom GUI elements in general. An exception is the link field which receives a drag message if you drag something into into it. See following thread:

Also you can access some parts of custom description elements. But this depends on the internal datatype structure of the elements.
