AECOsim SS6 Datagroup user defiened Item properties value cant be displayed/ shown corretly in item browser/ dg explorer??

Hej Guys,

this is an issue making all my previous work getting close to useless:(

I have made a paz cell in PCS with all the necessary variables and expressions. I have made two type of variables, the first one, is the user input variables, which means when I am placing the cell as user defined items in AECOsim, I need to keyin the values to make sure the item has all the correct dimension etc.

I also made some other varables as results from some equations/calculations (they are set to non editable in datagroup system). fx. for a cube, i need to keyin the value of the edages: a, b and c when I am placing the item. as the result, I will get it created in AECOsim, and plus, the varable volumn will get the volumn of the cube by using the formular v= axbxc. or I key in top and bottom elevations for an extrusion path, and getting the length as variable value as: length=top elev.-bottom elev.....

it works prefectly after I ve created the object. and if I use modify user defiend item function. I can see all the result values displayed correctly. Great!!! BUT!!!! when I am trying to make some schedule/export to excel via item set or dg explorer, all the sudden all these calculated values are GONE!!! there are only 0s left for me.....

here are the pics of item and dgexplorer I am talking about:

Highlighted values are all come from paz cell, and are the result of calculations based on other keyin values. and they are set to be non editable in dg catalog. all the values are correct in this modify user defined item dialog box......

but in dg explorer, all the values are still 0......

can anyone please tell me if  there is an explaination on it and more important, is there a way to walk around so that i can get the values into dg explorer??

thanks a lot

Leo
