Hello,
please see the example below. It shows the same list being referred by a macro name and by a string. The tokens do not appear in the first case as they do in the second.
Fixing this would be appreciated.
This isn't an issue with macros - the issue is that it's a dynamic reference. The list on the right isn't using a string, it's using a direct pointer to the list in the toolbox. If you make the the list on the right use a string it does the same thing:
example-list-with-string-name.fsm
This behavior is by design. The List's draw code only handles direct pointer references. It doesn't evaluate dynamic references in the draw code since that would cause performance issues.
I'm not sure what you're trying to do with list names in macros, but depending on what you're doing you could use the macro to set the list reference as a direct pointer:
- getvarnode(getactivity("ProcessFlow", "List"), "listRef").value = List(MY_LIST);
