For Value List and Page List properties, the index is a number starting with 1. To reference a single element of the list, use an expression that evaluates to a positive integer value.
For example, you can set the first two elements of the Value List
property named Months
using a data transform's Set action or using the Property-Set method as follows:
.Months(1) | "January" |
.Months(2) | "February" |
Numeric indexes work similarly for a Page List property. The LoanApplications Page List
property contains a Single Value
property named LoanAmount:
.LoanApplications(1).LoanAmount | "1000" |
.LoanApplications(2).LoanAmount | "2000" |
Each element of a Value Group
or Page Group
property is identified by a unique value that must be a Java identifier. You can enter a constant string as the index, such as Mother or Massachusetts:
.FamilyMembers(Mother) | "Nancy" |
.FamilyMembers(Father) | "George" |
You can also enter an expression that evaluates to a string value. The result must be a valid Java identifier.
On the Clipboard tool display, Value Group
values appear on the right panel.
