Customizing Guidelines and Restrictions Check
To enable customization of guideline and restriction checks, two script hooks are
provided on the
FGUIDELINE symbol. The hook methods are called after the
standard guideline checks are run and can be used to add custom guidelines. The hooks are postGRItemCheck and postGRParamCheck.
If the guideline check involves more than one formula, the script hook methods are called for each individual formula.
For convenience, the following script variables are provided for use inside the hook
methods:
