Hi Ste,
The Club pass veritical and horizontal perfed and the cover is horizon perf.
The number of sets are 190 so I was thinking that worse case I run covers separately and hand merge because it is a static cover.
The stock is being pre-perfed so it would be in two bins.
It doesn't look like my output impo matches the perf layout.

Hi,
Creating set of club passes for a sports season. There is a cover and 43 club passes two up. I am having trouble with setting the BodyPageUsage. I tried a couple things from the forum but placed the cover in the wrong location. I don't know the command to place before and not after. Uploaded example note: the FP stuff for barcode and event would have been better as array but couldn't figure that out either. Took a longer road.
Any help with how to pull a cover page would be appreciated.
Oops skip that...the cover has different perf so I need to do something else.

I wanted to say thanks again for the help. I was confused and the explanation(s) helped tremendously. Column chart example of what was discussed in this thread.

Hi Dan,
I had "turned off" x y - grids and titles. original thought was to place the FusionPro chart onto a predefined grid on the PDF. On the test output there arelines on the x-y axis. example attached.
I don't believe its an issue though because I will be using the x y info. The range of values are too much to fit on a predefined grid. The client example chart goes up to 1,000,000 bushels and it looks like the average is around 40,000 to 50,000 bushels.
Thanks

HI Ste,
Again thanks for the response. I was trying to trigger my body page and couldn't figure it out. I did go through the data and created a field for a template. It took awhile. I am going to work on the page selection from your example.
I think your right about the chart and I believe I will need to use the x y in FusionPro. There are some pretty big ranges. I'm not sure how committed the client is to the large numbers they have in there static piece.
This is one panel in a 12 panel project VDP piece - been trying to figure out this chart piece for a bit. Your help has been tremendous.
thanks again

Stephen,
thanks for your help. It has taken me a bit to get through the first part of the assistance even with it spelled out. I had read the chart portion in the users guide and didn't realize the guide was also telling me to refer to the tags reference guide-thanks-that helped a lot for understanding.
It appears the charts are building properly. I did try remove guides or legends and ended up with a lines on x and y axis.
Is there a way to turn that off? The legend and titles will be pre-printed.
The second part of your assistance is succinct but beyond my grasp. I did put the code in globals and modified rules but I'm not sure anything changed.
Is there a shorter-longer way to write a rule that if there are data in corn-soy-wheat to use the cornsoywheat body and if there's data in corn-soy but not wheat use the cornsoy body? again thanks

Hi
I'm having trouble creating a variable chart. I seem to be unable to comprehend how to create one. (my knowledge is severely lacking)
The chart is a stacked column with data from the same year but different "types" (i.e. (InventoryPro, 1 year, 2 year) changing colors in the column.
there are 8 years of data with up to three "types" of data. I haven't been able to make the data change years.
There are 5 potential charts based on all data in a record. CornSoyWheat, CornSoy, Corn, Soy, Wheat. The onrecordstart didn't work for me. I tried a ridiculously long statement which I don't know how to simplify or get it to work.
The min and max amount for each varies considerably and I don't know if it possible to create a chart like the client example. The client example starts in increments of 1,000 and at 10,000 increments by 10,000 and at 100,000 increments by 250,000.
Any help, tip or clues would be appreciated.
My attempts are attached.

Again Ste,
A big thanks. The explanation in the code helps alot. I'm still working on understanding what is all happening within the code. This is something I hope to emulate in the future.
regards,

Hi,
Some of the parameters changed on the project.
The client wants equal white space above and below the printing.
There was a static line in the original file. Now the line needs to float with the variable data.
My goal is to create a .5 point line 2 inches long underneath the Name. (example is the goal pdf)
The line needs to float with text because the number of lines are variable and the client wants equal white space above and below the print.
The other issue is that my line is one character to the left of all other type.
I put a space in front of text which worked (however wrong for coding) for most lines except on the rule which can have multiple lines of text.
The first phone number is ok but then the next one/two right align.
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

First Ste
Thanks for the response-solution and detailed explanation and links to sources. When I first saw your response I thought are you kidding me. I spent a full day trying various rabbit holes.
It is such elegant solution and I appreciate the notes you made.
I did see in another post on a similar topic that an array was used but it was way over my head.
I will challenge myself to apply the logic to the whole card so I can get a grasp on the programming elements you used. Again thanks much.

Hi,
It figures-I found the copyfit answer in forum and better yet applied it. In the answer was change to "leading" and the text flowed without resizing.

Hi,
I have a business card with one two or three possible phone numbers. (direct, cell, and main) The first number needs to be color red. The numbers are suppressed if they are empty fields. Is there a way to format the paragraph so that the first line is "color" regardless of the field.
The other issue I have is that on the business card the title may be to long to fit and should flow to another line or better flow to anther text box.
Any help would be appreciated. I know this has probably been answered in other posts and I may have read them but still lacking comprehension.
thanks

Hi,
Thanks for the responses. That is the effect I wanted. I did try and with limited knowledge failed. Did find out we had FusionPro Expression on an unused computer.
I'm not sure I am using the rule properly because I failed at producing the same results. I think I've attached the LR as an example.

Thanks-This was from a prior 2011 project that I don't have the resources to. Kind of like a blind squirrel poking around and learning.

Hi -
Very new to FusionPro.
I have a name on the back of Sports Jersey that needs outlined text and a text curve. I did curve the text -not sure if it is the proper way.
In the artwork there is FAN LAST NAME is there a way to remove that?
On the outline it is white lettering with a black outline.
How do you outline text?
Thanks
Leo

Thanks for alerting me to the record problem I have. It did do as you described. The client provided the 2-up format for the grainy leather look across the two tickets. With a 1up format both sides would be the same.
thanks for the code cleansing example.
