Re: Changing property value through validation?
Look at the possible return values of flowElement.getPropertyStringValue. It is a so-called overloaded function, which means that it can return more than one type of variable. In this case the return values can be string or string[]. For a single-line text you will get a string and for a multiline t...

Re: Running Powershell scripts
I have no experience with the "Run Command" app. As to "Execute command" the mistake is that "Command or path" should point to powershell.exe, the path to the script is part of the "Arguments". If you need to delete files and folders have a look at the "F...

Re: processing order
If you assemble the XMLs in a job folder first, you can use the app "File Sorter and Spacer" (part of the Folder apps bundle) to get the files out of the folder one by one with an interval.

Re: Using a Json Dataset to create a slip sheet for every input PDF
There is no need to remove anything. On the contrary. Just open the JSON file in a text editor, scroll to the bottom and you will see it is incomplete: it ends with a comma. Editors that are JSON-aware (like VSC) will show there is an error, or you can copy&paste the file into an online JSON val...

Re: Using a Json Dataset to create a slip sheet for every input PDF
The JSON file is incomplete so you cannot do anything with it in an automated way (or did you remove a part because otherwise it would be too big?). I could open the file as text of course. It contains URL links to the files. Do these also have to be downloaded as part of the process? Conceptually, ...

Re: node.js debugger setup
A common mistake is not being in the correct folder in VSC when attaching. You should have the script folder open at the level of the main.ts. One level too high, one level too low and you do not see the right things.

Re: Adding Lines - Part 2
The origin of PDF is indeed lower left, but when adding objects PitStop lets you choose a position relative to one of the 9 anchor points. What remains true is that for horizontal X positions positive offsets move to the right, and for vertical Y positions positive values go up. So if you want to go...

Re: Private Data in XML Request
Good approach, Magnus! The explanation is indeed the presence of the square brackets that inhibits the correct resolution of the Switch variables. A few things about CDATA. XML has 5 reserved characters that must be escaped when being used in a value: less than, greater than, ampersand, double quote...

Re: Private Data in XML Request
I am confused here. You are suggesting that you use "Multi-line text with variables" with "HTTP request", but in the next post you also mention the app "Create text file". Which is it? If the created text file does not contain the resolved variable, that points to a pro...

Re: Best way to remove rich black
Converting RGB to CMYK is an edit and edits are of course done before checks. What is "rich black" for you? The solution could be (there is not enough information to be sure): Select color range - where you define the ranges that represent rich black for you Change color - to 0% DeviceGray...

Re: Set color of text based on background color
Select text segments
Select overlapping objects - Replace the current selection by objects that are overlapped by any object from the current selection
Select color, e.g. 100C/100M
AND
Log selection - Blue background has text on it
or some variation on the above.

Re: Change "text" to "boolean"
This is what "Rule-based variables" in Variable Sets are for. You create a variable, e.g. UserChoice, that gets the text from metadata, and you create another variable UserChoiceAsBoolean that is rule based and where you define that when UserChoice is equal to "I love it" the val...
