Single quotes in property strings?

tebling
So if I have the following type defined:

define type <dance_type>
reminder2_msg = These feet are made for dancing, let's get to it!
end define


Then I do:

say <$objectproperty(#my_obj#; reminder%reminder_num%_msg)$>


It will display:

"These feet are made for dancing, let"


So, for some reason the single quote is cutting off the rest of the string. This is really annoying, since single quotes work fine if I just put the string directly into a <msg>...

Any ideas how to get around this in a clean way?

Many thanks :)

It looks like Quest is treating everything after the apostrophe as a comment. This used to happen with synonyms but was fixed in Quest 3.1 - I'll put this on my list of things to fix for Quest 3.53.

Glad to hear this is a legit bug - thanks Alex!

Btw, any estimates on 3.53?

I fixed the bug last night on my internal version. I was getting ready to release 3.53 but there are a couple of new QDK issues which need fixing too. These things always take far longer than I expect...
