Section View Letters and View Label

[lukaa]

Hello everyone, I am new person here. I am working on some dll for NX and I find a problem.
I cannot fine any relation between Section Line letters and Section View Label. Details below:

When we use Edit Text - Section Line Letters for section A-A are (in brackets <>):
1 - <W!29539@SX_SEG_START_LETTER_ATTR>
2 - <W!29539@SX_SEG_END_LETTER_ATTR>

But when I edit text for Section A-A View Label, I am getting a string:
SECTION <W!28534@VWLETTER> - <W!28534@VWLETTER>

When we copy/paste <W!29539@SX_SEG_START_LETTER_ATTR> or <W!29539@SX_SEG_END_LETTER_ATTR> or <W!28534@VWLETTER> in the Annotation text we get the same letter.

I have two lists : one with the tags of Section Line Letters and second one with the Section View Labels Tags. And my question is:
Is there any way to find this relation between the letters and view label ?
Is it possible to get the evaluated text of these strings - in other words - is there some function which translates this string into "real" text?

NX7.5.5/C#

I'll appreciate any help.

VWLETTER is an attribute of your section view. SX_SEG_START/END_LETTER_ATTR also appear to be attributes, I would guess of the section line/segments, but I have not been able to verify that.

These are what's known as 'system attributes' and are generally only usable when they are applied by the function for which their usage was intended, but not in other more general functions.

...is there some function which translates this string into "real" text?

In the code you'd look at the value of the attribute.
