$$cpInfoCourseName$$ allways gives "Course Name" - bug?

I set the name of my Training in the File > Settings Dialog as the project name. ( I have a german copy, so  i don't know the exact english item names )

When i use  $$cpInfoCourseName$$  inside a TextField i allways get "Course Name" instead of my own training title.

* Where do i have to set the value of this variable?

* Is it a bug or am i doing wrong something?

    Forget that System Variable.  It goes nowhere.

    You can set the name of the course at File > Project Info > Project Name and then use cpInfoProjectName to pick it up for display.

    As Rod tells... same for cpInfoCourseID. Have a look at the descriptive table with system variables you can find in this article:

    yes your right.

    i got the variable names from the list at the project > variables dialog.

    ...but without any explanation, or sometimes even a wrong explanation. That was the reason I created a more detailed table, but if you are happy with the included information, that is fine.
