Custom attribute displayed value

Permalink
Anyone know what method is called to show an attributes stored value on a file object? I have an attribute working as I want it to, but it shows only the "value" of the select and id rather it display something a little more readable. Any thoughts?

Have you tried getAttributeValue($avID)

That is what I WOULD try, but I don't even know where that would go. I don't know what function is being called after the attribute value is saved with AJAX via the properties pane.

Loader::model('file_list');
Loader::model('attribute/categories/file');
$ak = FileAttributeKey::getByHandle('my_attribute_key_handle');
$fl = new FileList();
$fl->filterByWhateverStuff('this stuff');
$arrayOutput = new array();
foreach($fl->get() as $f) {
  $fv = $f->getVersion();
  $arrayOutput[] = $fv->getAttributeValue($ak, 'nice');
}


Off the top of my head. No testing or even sure it works really.
