Hi,

I need to manipulate Element Properties from code.

I need to add a property to elements that don't have it, and I need to update the value of the property if it wouldn't be correct. I'm using the IDms classes for this from a connector QAction.

I'm able to create the property using IDms.CreateProperty() and assign it to a new element by using a notify call to create it. However most of the element properties seem to be read only when using IDms.

Is IDms able to assign/update element properties?

Hi Thomas,

You need to first cast the property to IWritableProperty as shown in this example

By default, all properties will appear as read-only but you can use the snippet from the link above to determine whether or not they are writable.
