Get the correct Design Status iProp Value

[Raider_71]

Hi Guys I would like to know if someone can help getting the actual value of the Design Status iProperty. There are three options and if I use the normal method I only get the index number of the listbox 1,2 or 3. Is it posible to get the text string value? Also depending on the language settings it should be language correct as well?

oApprDoc.PropertySets.Item("{32853F0F-3444-11D1-9E93-0060B03C1CA6}").ItemByPropId(PropertiesForDesignTrackingPropertiesEnum.kDesignStatusDesignTrackingProperties).Value

Is this posible to do? ... to get the language correct string value?

Thanks!

Cheers

Unfortunately, this is not possible.  Inventor is storing the index of the listbox in the iProperty, which is what you're seeing.  Inventor reads this and then uses that index to set the selected value in the list box.  The contents of the list box itself is buit from reading a resource file based on the current language.  These specific strings are not available through the Inventor API.
