Re: Switch 2020 and Impostrip Pro 2020 with hotfolders
Once a file has been deposited in a hierarchy Switch does not hold on to the file, so I see no reason why this should not work. Is the hierarchy on a network drive? Does the writing of the file take a long time so perhaps Impostrip is trying to pick up a file that is not complete and it does not wai...

Re: Metadata - Paired Dropdown lists
"Client Code" is not a valid xpath. I think you just typed the label of the field in your submit point. You should use the "Build location path" dialog to build the xpath interactively. Then you know it is right. However, the xpath that is built in this way is not particularly smart: it use indexes,...

Re: Metadata - Paired Dropdown lists
Just add the list as you have written it to the dropdown items of the metadata field. When you then access the metadata value with a single-line text with variables use the After field to specify that you want everything after the space.

Re: api call from flow
You are using callbacks for the http part, but Switch keeps executing the rest of the script and hits the end before the http call calls the callback function (lots of calling going on here). We are organizing webinar sessions on NodeJS scripting in Switch on October 20th and 22nd (Getting started) ...

Re: UTF-16 in Xml
Many XML files do not have an XML declaration as the first line:
That is OK, but then UTF-8 is assumed. Perhaps your XML file does not have such a declaration?
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>

Re: Using multiple checkpoints via email in flows
Using multiple Checkpoint via mail elements using the same account can work because each element only takes the mails that are relevant for itself. It is possible that a problem occurs when both elements are accessing the mail box at the same time. When they try again the next time it will probably ...

Re: Is there way to have Switch place a file in Indesign?
The action that will give you that behavior is: Scale to fit page size. With the settings in the attached screenshot you should get what you now do via Indesign. Screen Shot 2020-09-24 at 18.04.24.png The width and height values will probably have to be variable. Let me also reiterate my remark that...

Re: Is there way to have Switch place a file in Indesign?
What Liv wrote is the way to go but you do not have to use PitStop Pro to achieve that, you can do exactly the same with PitStop Server. It is all about what you do in the action list and these are functionally identical between PitStop Pro and PitStop Server. The question becomes: how do I add 1.5"...

Re: Separate Spots into Individual PDF
Would like to have single PDF containing multiple coating and/or die spot separations, divide into individual PDFs for each process for routing to process (if needed) and send to separate vendors. I interpreted that as meaning that you wanted the different spot colors that make up a certain process...

Re: Separate Spots into Individual PDF
Use the option "Select Spot Color by name from list" when using the action "Select spot color" and list all the possible names for a foil or a varnish and all those spots will be selected together and will end up on the same layer. Names of spots that are not present in the file are ignored.

Re: XML-path to string
You can use getChildNodes(), but you can also use evalToNodes(xpath). Both return a NodeList object. evalToNodes is more flexible because it is not only capable of getting the direct children but also other nodes further down the tree. It all depends on the XPath, and the XPath depends on the struct...

There are a couple of other outstanding wishes for apps in the "Folder Apps" bundle and Laurent and I would like to tackle them all at the same time. We would also like to take the opportunity to convert all the apps to Node.js. The downside of this message is that it will take a bit longer. We will...
