[Used up to v2.5.0]

^getFor( item, descendedFrom, attribute[,format])^

Gets any attribute you specify for any item (note) you specify. Note that:

^getFor (CurrentFileName , attribute)^

will get any attribute of the file like a root note.

Multiple levels of inclusion are permitted, but cycles are detected and broken.

The descendedFrom argument is treated as optional and scope is assumed as this if no argument is given here.

Color values - regardless of how defined inside the TBX (name, RGB or hex) are exported as hex; e.g #FF0000. If the attribute is of 'date' type then optionally a format string may be cited.


Up: Item-based
Previous: ^get( attribute[, format] )^  Next: ^getFor(path | item, attribute[, format] )^ (from v3.0.0)
