the attribute is src, the script will modify the image's source. The script's results
should be a valid value for the chosen attribute.
Note
When checked, the option Convert fields to JSON string writes the results
from the script into an attribute or text as a JSON string. This is useful for web
contexts where a front-end script can read this value easily.
9. Close the Text Script Wizard and type the placeholder for the results of the script in the
content of your template, or make sure that there is at least one element that matches the
selector of the script.
10.
Hover over the name of the script in the Scripts pane. In the workspace you will see
which parts of the template are affected by the script. If the script produces an error, the
error message will be displayed in a hint on the Scripts pane.
Tip
When one of the included data fields is empty, the respective line, including the
prefix and suffix, is skipped. The result of the script will be shorter, causing the rest
of the content to move up or down. If, in a Print context, you don't want the result of
the script to be part of the text flow (for example, when a letter is going to be sent in
an envelope with a window), put the placeholder for the script in a positioned box
(see "Boxes" on page 265 and "How to position elements" on page 410).
Tip
An example of how to create an address block using the Text Script Wizard is described in a how-
to; see How to create an Address Block.
Formatting variable data
When a Text Script, made with the Text Script Wizard (see "Using the Text Script Wizard" on
page 338) adds variable data to a template, it can easily change the way the data are formatted
as well. This is done in the Text Script Wizard through a special formatting modifier or a format
mask for each field that the script adds to the template.
