[Qgis-user] Model desinger / enum input question

[Bo Victor Thomsen]

Hi list -

I'm designing a processing model, where i use a "Enum" input. When 
accessing this variable in a "Calculate Expression" algorithm in the 
model, the result will be an ordinal value - not a text - from the enum.

Example:
I have an enum named "animal" defined with 3 animal names like 
"Gorilla","Snake","Elephant". If the user choose "Snake" the variable 
@animal contains the number "1" instead of "Snake". How do I get the 
textual representation of the enum instead of the ordinal ?

I'm aware I can use a CASE... WHEN in the expression. But it will be 
cumbersome for enums with many values.
