Re: Layer mystery
Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation, bens. Your suggested action works just as I wanted it to. I had already tried to use "Copy objects to clipboard", but couldn't figure out how to paste this into the new not yet existing layer. Pasting into the existing layer and then using "S...

Re: Using variables in filepath
I don't think I understand how that would help? What I want is to be able to set the path to a specific folder in my flow, by using variables.

Using variables in filepath
Would it be possible to use a variable as part of a filepath for a folder in Switch? I have a fixed folder structure for all costumers. The only difference is, that the top folder would be named after the costumer. All files are submitted through a Submit Point and the name of the costumer (which eq...

Re: XSLT to transform to CSV
Thanks a lot, Loic, for your effort. However, my input is an xml-file rather than html. Or actually it's originally an e-mail injected as text and converted to xml using the app TXT pickup. Meanwhile I found this, which seems to do the job: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> ...

XSLT to transform to CSV
I'm trying to use XSLT transform in Switch to convert an XML-file into CSV. I don't know much about XSLT stylesheets, but I managed to find and manipulate this to work for converting my XML to HTML. Could any of you help to make this convert to CSV rather than HTML? <?xml version="1.0" enc...

Automatic creation of hyperlinks
I'm receiving adds as single page PDF files. I need to create a hyperlink on each of these PDFs just covering the entire page. The information about the URL that should be used for the link can be supplied as metadata, as separate XML or txt or whatever is best suited. Can anybody think of a way to ...

Re: Select Images and fit to page
Andrew, again we miss "Scale selection"
Re: Split PDF
There might be more elegant ways to do this, but I guess this would work: 1. Use Split PDF to split the file into single pages with a suffix "_index" 2. Use Job dismantler to get all these files out of the folders created by Split PDF 3. Make two connections from this folder. One that allo...

Re: Can Switch create a specific Folder Structure?
You can use the "Set hierarchy path" to create the folder structure. Set "Path segment 1" to "01-PFDs" and "Path segment 2" to "High Res" and pass the files on to an "Archive hierarchy" with the levels of subfolders set to at least 2. If yo...

Re: RGB to RGB (values!)
I don't know from which version this was introduced. All I know is, that it's there in both 12 and 13, so you'll probably need to upgrade to get this feature.

Re: Extract string from filename to variable
In order to use the information added by "Set Hierarchy Path" your output folder needs to be an Achieve hierarchy. So exchange your "Folder 6" with an Archive hierarchy and make sure to set the "Subfolder levels" to a number high enough.

Re: Extract string from filename to variable
... or for renaming you could use:
Keep segment
Act on: Filename proper
Start index: 8
End index: 0

Re: Extract string from filename to variable
If all you need do is to place the file in the right folder you could just use the "Set hierarchy path" element followed by a rename. Set hierarchy path. Path segment 1: Servername Path segment 2: Data Path segment 3: [Job.NameProper:Before="_"] Path segment 4: [Job.NameProper:Se...
