With the VDS in Inventor, no properties (standard and user-defined) can be displayed or edited if a function is assigned to them. Additionally, if a standard (non-custom) property is set through a function via the VDS, a new custom property is created with the system name of that property. I'm attaching a video of the behavior. A new file was saved for the first time and a value was written to the comments. The Comments property then became a function that additionally displays the Test property. When opening the data sheet, the Comments property is no longer displayed. If you write a new value there, the user-defined Comments property is created. In versions 2021/2022/2023 and 2024, this behavior can also be reproduced with Win10 and Win11. It is desired that the VDS can display and edit properties with a function in the same way as properties without a function. It would certainly make sense to adapt the interface similar to that in Inventor and add the "fx" button next to the properties that are defined by a function, to change between the functions definition an its output.
