Updating code in Python tool by action tool ?

[Wojtek_Dz]

Hi, as in topic, is it possible to update the parts of code (yellow) via action tool ?

Thanks !

Hi @Wojtek_Dz 

I suggest you to update a text input tool, and import this cell inside of the python tool. Its a better option, because you can isolate exactly the field that you want to update without any more complications. I use this method a lot and it works fine.

I agree 100% with@Felipe_Ribeir0  - I have no issue with updating the R in the R tool but the nature of how Python runs on Designer allows for bleed and weird issues where it's not fully stable. I've seen the action tool work - and the action tool not work - with the same config when changing Python code parameters directly.

Hi @Felipe_Ribeir0 I saw your solution in other post and thought it would not be enough for my case, but after a few tries the concept of your solution helped me find a way to get an answer to my question :) thanks !
