I would like to bump this thread, this built-in button is very limiting. I recently discovered a fantastic way to update VA Elements using Grasshopper Player or Synapse GUI (or Human UI). This may seem like something insignificant, but in fact, the decision to have this built-in button has serious consequences. A built-in button instead of a boolean input disables a whole bunch of possibilities.
This change seems trivial to me in terms of workload compared to how much it enables.
If you don’t want to change this component now, could you provide a C# Script Component that does the same thing, but has a boolean input?
For now it’s one of the two most important (but small) requests of mine, the other one is this : GH Style Inputs (these wishes really go together and can make GH Styles much more flexible).
PS
Of course the Update Property component must accept a list of geometries for the Property to be updated.
