l
Trim selection: Select to force the splitter to strip empty trailing characters. When
this option is not selected, blank trailing characters, if any, are considered in the
matching process, so the word “DAY will not be considered as matching the word
“DAY. Note that this setting applies only to the Word change option.
l
Where to split: By default, the task splits the file at the beginning of the line on
which the condition is met (the default value is 0). If you want the task to split the file
a certain number of lines before or after that line, enter a value other than 0 in this
box. Enter 1, for example, to split the file at the beginning of the line that precedes
the line on which the condition is met.
l
Before: If you entered a value other than 0 in the Where to split box, select this
option if you want to split the file a given number of lines before the line on
which the condition is met.
l
After: If you entered a value other than 0 in the Where to split box, select this
option if you want to split the file a given number of lines after the line on
which the condition is met.
l
When condition is found: By default, the task splits the file every time the condition
is met (the default value is 1). If you want the task to split the file only when the
condition has been met twice, for example, enter the number 2 in this box.
l
CSV Emulation Group
l
Add header to each output file: This option should only be checked if you are
using CSV emulation, and will copy the first line of your data file as the first line of
each split file afterward. This is useful only if your first line is a Header line that
contains your field names.
Miscellaneous Tab
The Miscellaneous tab is common to all tasks.
Check the option Use as step description to display the text next to the icon of the plugin in
the Process area.
Generic Splitter
The Generic Splitter is a legacy task which is kept for backwards compatibility. In previous
versions of PlanetPress Workflow, it was the only splitter available. While this splitter seems to
have more options than the other ones, this is only because it contains combined features from
these other splitters.
