Brent,

Oops could you get RK to add it to the new version he's putting out this
week.

 Now to test iterations on the Global command...

Jerry,

Generally, for the FormatedStringConfigurer's in the Map component etc., you
have only those variables available in the 'Insert' pull-down list.

The Property Filter in Global Key commands is handled differently and no,
you cannot use $xxx$ constructs to access any of the FormattedString
variables as these are interpreted within the FormattedString class.

I can see a case for adding some more properties to the BasicPiece class so
that they can be used in property filters:

PieceName: Current piece name
PlayerSide: Side name for the current player (not the owner of the piece).

Regards,
Brent.

Brent,
   
  Thanks I phrased my question wrong, I was aware of those, I had hoped
there would be one for the piecename, I am also unsure how to represent them
for the currently active piece can the $piecename$ as used for
reporting/messaging be used and if so what variables are avaialable, that
was the list I was after. 
   
  1. When a global is run can you use $xx$ within the matching criteria

In a global can you refer to a $piecename$=Test or will this just return
the piecename  the Global is called from. 

It would be great if there was a list of all the property/trait names that
can be uses and the $ variables and what they reference.
