Object variable expected
Help Document

Diagnosis

The syntax check found an error. An object variable is expected at the cursor.

In preconditions, selection conditions, procedures, and actions, you can use the following object variables:

  • $ROOT for the highest level object in a multi-level configuration
  • $SELF for the object currently being processed
  • $PARENT for the object immediately above current object $SELF in a multi-level configuration

The object variable is separated from the characteristic by a period:
$ROOT.COLOR

In constraints, you can define object variables under OBJECTS.

T IS_A (300)TABLE

You can also define your own variables for characteristics in constraints. You then use these variables to refer to the characteristics.
If you have not defined object variables for the characteristics of the object, you must define which object the characteristic belongs to. In this case, the system expects an object variable before the characteristic.
T.Material = 'oak'
