hi there….

try the following, there is no checks and some assumptions. Hope it solves what you need…

set comp_list [ hm_entitylist comps id ]; #gets all comps and loop thru them.

foreach comp_id $comp_list {

#gets current name and color.

set comp_name [ hm_getvalue comps id=$comp_id dataname=name ]

set color [ hm_getvalue comps id=$comp_id dataname=color ]


# create a new prop with the componentn name/id/color

*createentity props id=$comp_id name="$comp_name" cardimage=PSHELL color=$color

set last_id [ hm_latestentityid  props ]


#assigns the new property to the component 'comp_id'

*setvalue comps id=$comp_id propertyid={props $last_id}

}
