How do I access the "description" (not sure what it's actually called) after the symbol name in ACSIL?
The ones I'm looking for don't appear in the symbol settings files.

I attached an image of the chart window menu for reference.

Thanks!

This is the function you need to use:
ACSIL Interface Members - Functions: sc.GetSymbolDescription()
