[Variation] tag does not update dynamically between Variations

[Charles]

The [variation] tag in custimize caption is not updating between variations…is this a bug?

[edm11]

Try this little script instead:

Var
   VarLabel : Widget

On Variation(oldVariation : integer, newVariation : integer)
    SetWidgetLabel(VarLabel, GetVariationName(newVariation))
End

I gave the label widget a handle of VarLabel

thank edm11. I am aware that this can be scripted, but was wondering if the tag is supposed to work dynamically. @dhj @npudar

@edm11 I had forgotten, this does not have to be scripted. Its in System Actions: Variation Name

Show Value in caption has to be toggled on as welll.
