Results of Switch Colourants into Pitstop Server multiline text variables
Posted: Wed Jan 21, 2026 5:55 am
Hi,
I am pulling [Stats.Colorants] from a PDF using standard Switch
You get a semi colon separated list, like this...
I would like to have Pitstop Server place multiline text using the above but with linebreaks instead of semi colons.
I have been trying the StringReplace app.
If I have to I will move the text out of Switch, do work to it and inject it back, but I was really hoping to do it in less steps.
I am not clear on what Pitstop Server sees as a line break. You can pull in pre-formatted text but I cannot see how to format it on the fly, eg by swapping ; for \n
