[isSpot issues]

Not sure what you are intending to make a spot color but to add a spot color to use in Fusionpro is to click Fusionpro>Advanced>Colors... in the top menu and click New in the Colors dialog box. Then in the New Color dialog box check the spot color checkbox, type out the name of the spot color you want to use EXACTLY and type in it's CMYK values. When you compose a job with this color the Output should use the spot color not as a CMYK blend.

[Insert string based on combination of two fields]

This worked for me. Replacing the necessary fields and sentences you plan to use.

 

Code:

//if A is blank and B is not, use sentence 1

//if B is blank and A is not, use sentence 2

//if A and B both contain data, return sentence 3

 

if (Field("A") == "" && Field("B") != "")

return "sentence 1"

else if (Field("B") =="" && Field("A") !="")

return "sentence 2"

else if (Field("B") !="" && Field("A") !="")

return "sentence 3"

else

return ""

[Setting Height of Rows in a Table]

You can't specify an exact height, as the row automatically expands down to accommodate the text of all the cells in it. However, in FusionPro 8.1 and later, you can specify a minimum height, either with the "minheight" attribute on the <row> tag, or using the table API, with the "minHeight" property of the FPTableRow object.

 

 

I'm trying to set a minheight attribute within a table but I'm uncertain where to put FPTableRow minHeight.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

 

Thanks

[name multiple pdf output files using a field]

This has been answered in other places on the forum. The code I use looks like this:

 

if (FieldChanged("Field"))
   FusionPro.Composition.OpenNewOutputFile(Field("Field") + "." + FusionPro.Composition.outputFormatExtension);

Just place this in the OnRecordStart Rule when creating a new rule. However, this only works on FusionPro 9. To my knowledge, older versions cannot create arbitrary chunks. What version are you using?
