Hi,

Could use parameter channel in group pattern?
I tried @P.y>ch(“mych”) but it not worked. Any way do it ?

try
@P.y>`ch(“mych”)`

as ch() is an expression

Don't know this for a fact, but you might need to use the global $TY, instead of @P.y depending on context.

I think jerry was refering to syntax in group parm on sop nodes not actual pattern of Group SOP
whichever is the case, backticks apply to both of them for inserting a value using an expression

would love to know this one… It appears that in the group tab, you cannot do it and only using expressions such as $TY > `ch(“someParm”)` is possible

however, you can use them in the combine tab no problem..!
