9.13 Inheritance of Property Values

The CAE sometimes renders fallbacks if a content property is not set, for example, by using a value of another property instead. To visualize this in Studio, you may use content of a property editor from another property editor as the default empty text.

This is currently possible for a few property fields. One is the StringPropertyField and the other one is the TextAreaPropertyField. While the StringPropertyField may inherit its content from another StringPropertyField, the TextAreaPropertyField may inherit its content from a StringPropertyField or a RichTextPropertyField.

In order to use this visualization, you may use the StringPropertyFieldDelegationPlugin or the TextAreaPropertyFieldDelegationPlugin attached to the property field that should inherit the value.
