Beginners question

Hi,

At last I have some time to pick up on RhinoPython.
My current challenge: set text to display a detail scale.
What I have so far already halts after selecting a detail.
Can anyone help to show me on how to approach this, furthermore any reading to prevent me asking apparent beginners questions like this.

Thanks

What I have so far:

import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs
import Rhino
def DetailScaleToText():
    # Get the detail
    DetailID = rs.GetObject("Select Detail for scale", rs.filter.detail, True, False)
    if( DetailID==None ): return

    # I understand that DetailID is now a System.GUID
    # But how to go about getting the ration of that Detail it refers to
    # per Rhino.Geometry.DetailView.PageToModelRatio

    DetailObject = ?

    ratio = DetailObject.PageToModelRatio
    print ratio



# Check to see if this file is being executed as the "main" python
# script instead of being used as a module by some other python script
# This allows us to use the module which ever way we want.
if( __name__ == "__main__" ):
    DetailScaleToText()
