sourceName
: string naming a value source as it is shown on radio menus where you can select it. Notice that many names have special characters in them.
Return value
sourceIndex
: integer. The source index, which can be used as input for getSourceName(sourceIndex)
, getValue(sourceIndex)
, and getFieldInfo(sourceIndex)
.
The source names shown on the screen are not the same as the names used by getFieldInfo
and getValue
. But the indices are the same, so e.g. getValue(index)
will work with the indices obtained here.
This function is rather time consuming, and should not be used repeatedly in a script, if it can be avoided.
