body: <p>In "Properties" of my project I have the following:</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/IzVvl.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
  
  <p>I want to check if <code>TEST</code> symbol exists, and only then, do some things.
  So I did what you see in the picture below and in the class it works. However this does not work in the views.</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/my2nC.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
  
  <p>The text in this block is gray even if <code>TEST</code> is defined!</p>
  
  <p>How can I cause it work if <code>TEST</code> is defined?</p>
