Re: RGB to RGB (values!)
In your PitStop Preferences go to "Units and Guides" and switch off "Show percentages for RGB colors"

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...

Re: Insert common page to a multipage document
I think you will need to tell more specific about what you are trying to achieve. What kind of file are we talking about? Is this one file containing 1000 pages or is it an imposed sheet, where you want to step and repeat the same back on each businesscard?

Re: Portals
Everything should be, but I haven't buttoned up some of the small details yet. If you find other fields, please let me know. I will put in a fix for this ASAP. I've opened this issue on your behalf: https://github.com/open-automation/Swit ... s/issues/7 Thanks a lot, Gabriel. I've mad a few extra c...

Re: variable scaling
Yeah, I have been asking for a "Scale selection"-action for a long time. That would be really useful and could probably solve this too. I don't know what your proof tag should look like, but if you could do with text only, you could add a text using the "Add object"-action. In th...

Re: Portals
I really like the idea of using portals and I've been doing some testing. That makes me wonder which metadata is actually carried across a portal? I see that the information in "Job state" is still there after sending a file via a portal, but "hierarchy info" and "email addr...

Re: Inject job from Auto-manage folder
Yes, it's really annoying that you can't inject a job based on it's JobName Proper rather than the job name including the unique prefix. :oops: If there is any way you could place the files to be injected in a folder with no outgoing connection, you will be able to strip the unique name and that way...

Re: Group files with same name, different extension in a folder
Ahh, I think I know what the problem is. In your first Add Hierarchy Path you are probably adding the Jobname.proper to the hierarchy, right? Don't do that. It's af folder and will therefore already be a part of the hierarchy. Only add the date as segment 1 and nothing more.

Try raising that to 4 or more.

Re: Group files with same name, different extension in a folder
What's the amount of subfolder levels set for your Archive Hierarchy?

Re: Group files with same name, different extension in a folder
... and make sure you allow at least three subfolder levels for the Archive Hierarchy.

Re: Group files with same name, different extension in a folder
Oh, I just realized that this discussion is going on in several threads now. Please avoid that in the future. The hierarchy path suggested by gabrielp should be added to the tiff-file, when it returns from GMG. The information you add in the first "Set hierarchy path" is lost, when the fil...

Re: Need help on creating Switch flow
When the tiff-file returns from your RIP you should add hierarchy path with three segments: 1. [Switch.Date:Format="dd-mm-yy",TimeZone="System"] 2. [Job.NameProper] 3. [Job.NameProper]_Softproof That should be all, I guess, assuming that the tiff-file is returned on the same day ...

Re: Multiple Native Files in Single Folder
Yes, Gabriel. It's quite handy. I've used it for processing InDesign books, where you have the same problem, that only one of the InDesign-files will be processed.

Re: Multiple Native Files in Single Folder
I guess this is what "Split multi-job" is for. Insert the Split multi-job configurator and define .ai as the "Main file type". That should give you separate folders each containing only one AI-file and a copy of all other files (linked files).
