MoveText Configuration
Contents
Display the movetext plugin dialog – see To attach a plugin to a field – then:
| 1. | Choose whether to make the change(s) to the field's text |
| o | always, i.e. without condition; or |
| o | only: |
| • | if the condition is TRUE or |
| • | if the condition is FALSE |
| 2. | If the treatment is conditional (either TRUE or FALSE), you must also set up the Condition details to be met by the text in that field: |
| o | contains the string for example New customer. If it does not matter whether any of the characters in the string are upper- or lower-case, tick: |
| • | Case blind option too. |
| o | contains any of these characters for example $£€. If the case of these characters does not matter, tick: |
| • | Case blind option as well. |
| 3. | Tick Change the color of the selected text if required; see Color change. |
| o | Select the units of measurements. Choose from inches, centimeters or points (1/72 inch). |
| o | Click on the diagram to select a reference point on the page and the direction of movement within the page. |
| o | Enter a horizontal offset distance and a vertical offset distance in the edit boxes; a zero in both boxes places the text origin at the chosen reference point. |
| 5. | Click OK. |
A "page" diagram is displayed with a "field" area shown as a cyan block. Click on a the corner of the page or around the text origin of the block to set up the reference point and offset direction to be used: |
