Control Script API
The table below lists the objects that are the most important in Control Scripts. Click through to
the object to find a description and sample scripts.
See "Control Scripts" on page545 for information about this kind of scripts, how to insert them
and what you can do with them.
Object Usage
"section"
on
page800
Much of the Control Script magic is performed by setting one of the fields of
the section object. Via the section object you can omit, select and clone
sections; add a background to a Print section; add a header to an email; etc.
A section can be retrieved via the context that it belongs to, using
merge.template.contexts.ContextType.sections["section name"]. For
example: merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections["Section EN"].
"context"
on the
facing
page
Object that contains one context and its sections. It is accessed through the
template object: merge.template.contexts.
To get access to one context, you have to specify the ContextType (see
"ContextType" on page810), for example: var printContext =
merge.template.contexts.PRINT;.
Through the merge object you can find out which context is currently being
merged: merge.context.
"template"
on
page807
The template object contains all contexts and sections. It is accessed
through the merge object: merge.template.
"merge" on
page799
The merge object gives access to the template with all of its contexts and
sections .
channel
(see
"Channel"
on
The channel for which output is generated. This is registered in the merge
object: merge.channel.
Note that the channel doesn't change when the output consists of different
contexts. When generating email, for example, the channel is EMAIL, even
when merging the Print context to attach it to the email.
