Resetting token properties to default?

[Shadowfireomega]

I have some tokens I made before I made a few changes to my properties, is there a way to 'reset' them to the defaults?

I'm not completely sure what you're asking for. Token properties have values and if you never change the value and leave the token property default there then that is what the value will be. You can also change the token property default and all the token defaults will change if a value hasn't been input. But if you did change the value then you can use Wiki: resetProperty() for each property on a token, but that would be a pain without writing a macro.

I believe you are looking for getPropertyDefault.

Set one:

Code: Select all

[h:setProperty(cProperty, getPropertyDefault(cPropertyName), currentToken())]

Set all:

Code: Select all

[h:cPropertyList = getAllPropertyNames("Basic")]
[h,FOREACH(cProperty, cPropertyList), CODE:
{
[h:setProperty(cProperty, getPropertyDefault(cPropertyName), currentToken())]
}]

I was afraid of that, but yes, I had properties change from basic Str:0 to Str:{BaseStr+TempStr-StrDmg-StrDrain+ItemStr} or something like that, the token was before this update, and the Str is stuck at the old value instead of the new equation. I'm just gonna totally redo the entire token, much easier than writing a macro for this xD


EDIT: I had forgotten to hit submit, came back and did so, just saw the newer post, will give this a try with another token, thanks!

You can use resetProperty as well in the loop, in fact that may be preferable since the example is writing a string rather than just resetting to display the default. Meaning, if you change it again in the future, it'll need to be updated again, while using resetProperty you won't.

Also, if there are only certain properties you want to reset, you can make the list manually instead of getting all the properties and resetting them, which would essentially just be a new token.

Code: Select all

[h:cPropertyList = "propName1,propName2,..."]
[h,FOREACH(cProperty, cPropertyList), CODE:
{
[h:resetProperty(cProperty,currentToken())]
}]

I totally never knew about resetProperty. How did I miss that?

Good to know.
