There is not a specific API to retrieve the property of a widget, but the following code can be used for this purpose:

getObj(id).pui.properties[propertyName];

Paramaters:

  • id - the widget id

  • propertyName - the name of the widget's property

Examples:

var buttonWidth = getObj("Button1").pui.properties["width"]; var myWidgetData = getObj("Image1").pui.properties["user defined data"];
