UI Policy Script to display values of a reference parent field

[Legenis]

I am trying to create a UI policy script that will grab the Parent field (references a project) and then displays read only fields below of the project name and description. I am somewhat new to this and running into difficulties trying to define a reference to other fields within my var. Any help would be much appreciated. 

This is where I am at so far on my UI policy script. I do understand that the reference dropdown shows me this information, I just want to be able to learn how to do it this way 🙂

function onCondition() {
var x = g_form.getValue('parent');
g_form.setValue('u_prj_short_desc',x);

Because you don't show alot of information about your UI policy setting or your parent reference field information so it's difficult to help but you can try g_form.getDisplayBox('parent').value instead of getValue because as i understand, getValue get the ID of the record, not the display name.

Hey Legenis,

Can i ask why are you using UI policy for this Requirement when you can simply use a Reference Qualifier to achieve this functionality and it will work just fine.
