Is there anyway to return an Object/Components name in eQUEST? For example, if a space wanted to get it's parent's (a floor) name and assign certain parameters based on the returned name. I can only see to be able to return the value of a parent's keyword value rather than the parent's actual name. The following example would return the value of the parent's "MULTIPLIER" keyword, but I would like to be able to return parent's name.

LIGHTING-W/AREA = ( {switch (Parent( MULTIPLIER )) case "L01": #pa("L01LTG")}
