Re: Faster way to add a copied graphic
Yet another possibility: create a variable set with 9 variables, one text variable with a dropdown list for all 8 options and 8 rule-based boolean variables. Define the rule-based variables in this way: if the dropdown variable is equal to x then the value is true, else it is false add all 8 copied ...

Re: Get API OAuth token using HTTP Request app
The Postman request uses "OAuth 2.0" as the authentication method, so that is also the one that you should use in Switch. Setting up OAuth 2.0 is not for the faint of heart. You need some information about the service you are connecting to: application ID, application password, authorizati...

Re: Rename file based on contents
It is clear that the first 23 characters are not a 100% solid way of combining the files because all 4 have the same first 23 characters. The obvious question: is there some other property that is common to the files that do belong together? If there was, you could concatenate both properties (the f...

Re: Rename file based on contents
You have described your input, but not your desired output, at least not in a clear way. There is a contradiction in the description: you mention positions 1-23, but in the screenshot the value is 1-15. There is something puzzling in the description: "This works fine" suggests it works fin...

Re: Get API OAuth token using HTTP Request app
In Postman I do not find the authorization "Send as Basic Auth header". There is "Basic Auth", but that requires a username and a password and is probably not what you need. I suggest that you export the Postman settings as a JSON and upload it here (you may have to zip it). It i...

Re: Alpha fill check action list
The JPEG format does not support transparency, so a method that is based on the properties of the image will not work. What you are referring to is undoubtedly the fact that there are white pixels. Here is a conceptual way of detecting those. Run a PitStop Server Action List on the image (make sure ...

Re: SVG images
SVG does not have a page size like PDF has, so a tool that converts SVG to PDF will have to "invent" something. The most obvious choice would be to take the bounding box of all the elements, but the easiest choice is to leave it to the user to specify a size and/or to use a default. Which ...

It is almost correct, Thomas! You forgot to mention that the thickness of the lasagna sheets must be between 1mm and 5 degrees Kelvin.

Re: Split PDF based on content
Well done! Just for my understanding: the area where the number is, is only filled for each new split, right? I was thinking that there would always be a number and that the split had to happen when the number changed. In that case every page would be logged and the splitting would not work. Assumin...

Re: Split PDF based on content
You cannot detect a change in numbers from one page to another in an Action List, so this approach will not work. This is how it can work, but it will require a small script: Run PitStop Server with an Action List that uses "Select objects inside or outside region" - "Log text propert...

Re: PdfProperties
Thanks for reporting this. It does indeed seem like it is a bug in the PdfPage class. I logged it. Art boxes are not used very often, so I hope you do not suffer from this. If it is important to you and you have PitStop Server then I suggest to use the FastLane app: https://www0.enfocus.com/en/appst...

Re: How to remove everything from Yellow Separation
I have one (pedantic) remark about the use of the multiply blend mode for the 40% Y rectangle that is placed on top of the page. When there is yellow somewhere in a design on the page that has a percentage higher than 40, multiply will result in the highest value, so the yellow will not be a uniform...
