Plugs:

string ReferenceFileName R The path of the referenced file
string ReferenceActualFileName R The actual path of the referenced file, in case the reference path had to be resolved
string ReferencePathOverride R The path override, so it possible to load another file instead of the original file

nil overrideinheritedattr ( string plugname , any value ) Override the attribute


Inherited from class SelectableNode
