Script Variables Window

From the Script Variables window you can define and modify global variables that you can reference from a script.

Script variables are stored in an external XML file. This is useful for projects that are being modified in several locations. For additional information, see Configuring External Script Variables.

The window lists the variables that you can access from script. If you have replaced or made changes to the script variables file while a project is open, refresh the Script Variables window.

From within your script, you can use the script variables by setting a value from the script variables object:
