Custom User Field for the name of the parent 3d object?

Question

I would like to make a custom user field for resources that displays the filename of the 3D Object that it is derived from. How would I do this?

Hi Gary, 
 Please try using the following User Field Formula - 3D.LEVEL_1.NAME

Hi Gary, 
 Additional to to Arpit's check item. 
 Can you tell us what is your SYNCHRO build? Are you using 6.4.1.2? Because the LEVEL_ command is only available in 6.4.1.2 build. 
 If you use previous build, you can use PARENT.PARENT.... command and count how many level is the root level. 
 
 Best regards,

Hi Jacqueline, Thank you for taking a month to misread my comment and give bad information. Can you confirm the following statement is true? 
 " Please note that SYNCHRO Pro as a separate product from 4D Pro is no longer being offered, but 4D Pro continues to support an .sp file-based workflow in addition to opening cloud-hosted projects from SYCNHRO Control." 
 I found this on the descripton of a recent video on your youtube channel here: www.youtube.com/watch 
 Going from Pro to 4D Pro is a huge price difference as well as involving many features that are simply never going to be used by our firm. Trying to push up this way is making us take a deeper look at your competitors.
