Not getting along with @INHERIT

I’m using a TV to specify a file to include on every page. This would be a perfect use for the @INHERIT binding, but I can’t get it to work.

The value of the TV is read by a snippet (using $modx->getTemplateVars). But instead of looking at the parent document and inserting the TV from it, the string "@INHERIT" is read. It seems getTemplateVars reads the value literally instead of parsing(?) the binding first.

Is there a solution for this? Or am I trying to do something not (yet) possible?

I believe what you need to do is to use getTemplateVarOutput instead of getTemlateVars. I think that should take care of it.

That did it. Superb!

Thank you, Adam!

Just for clarification,

The getTemlateVars will fetch the raw data/value being stored on the TV, while the getTemplateVarOutput is returning the end product/result/output that will be rendered to the page.
