I have an Item “ItemA” which has a property “PropA” of type Item with Item Behavior as Float. If I set the Item Behavior on the LifeCycle of the “ItemA” to be Hard Fixed. Will “PropA” behave as “Float” (as set) or “Fixed” (by taking the precedence from Parent’s Life Cycle state)?
I tried mocking this up. But “PropA” still has Float behavior (I expect it to behave it as Fixed :(). The Parent’s Life Cycle State’s Item Behavior does not take precedence in this case.
Please clarify.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Dharmatej34,
If you want to set the behavior of the PropA item, you will need to set the behavior on the property itself. Alternatively, if an instance of ItemA has a PropA value that points to and instance of ItemB, the PropA behavior can be determined by the Lifecycle state behavior on the ItemB instance.
The ItemA Lifecycle state behavior does not control the behavior of the properties of the ItemA instance, but rather the other item properties that reference that ItemA instance. If you have an instance of ItemC with an item property PropC that references an instance of ItemA, then the behavior of PropC may be determined by the Lifecycle state behavior of your ItemA instance.
