Python, what's wrong with you?

rhinoscriptsyntax is in the Editor, yeah. If it wasn’t there I’d not even dream about switching from Rhinoscript to python.

Yeah, I’ve no clue what RhinoCommon is or does. Is there a primer for it like for Rhinoscript or python?
I got the solution from here: Textbox with fields is not updating after TextObjectText is called

Not really - I think your best options are using inspect.getsource() to read the Rhinocommon source behind RhinoScriptSyntax, reading the specific developer pages and asking questions on here…

I wonder if there’s workaround to forcing text object text to process the formula without using RhinoCommon shenanigans…

Not in V5, but you should get used to this anyway, the sooner the better :slight_smile: All RhinoScriptSyntax methods do this behind the scene. Take a look at the syntax files if you want to learn from them:

C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\5.0\Plug-ins\IronPython (814d908a-e25c-493d-97e9-ee3861957f49)\settings\lib\rhinoscript

Though Rhinoscript doesn’t have that issue. Only Python.
