Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Fragments & Bookmarks - Hiding field labels

« on: February 13, 2019, 07:49:21 am »

I have been able to successfully use bookmarks to hide a label when the associated field is blank. For instance: my template reads something like: 
1.       constraint-pre >
2.       {ElemExtRequirement.Name}
3.       ^Description: {ElemExtRequirement.Notes}
4.       ^^< constraint-pre
The bookmarks are:
            ^ = ElemExtRequirement.Notes.Start
          ^^ = ElemExtRequirement.Notes.End
 Then when the Requirements are printed in the report, if there is no data for the ElemExtRequirement.Notes field, the Description: label does not print either.
 
 
  All Good so far....
 
 
   Now! I have SQL fragments with generic fields.   
1.       custom >
2.       {objectName}
3.       ^Description: {objectNote}
4.       ^^^< custom
at the ^ and ^^ designations, I have tried a variety of bookmarks, but they never work to hide the Description label:
·         objectNote.Start and objectNote.End
·         object.Note.Start and object.Note.End
·         ElemExtRequirement.Notes.Start and ElemExtRequirement.Notes.End
·         CustomSQL_objectNote_TITLE_Begin and CustomSQL_objectNote_TITLE_End
·         objectNote_TITLE_Begin and objectNote_TITLE_End
·         CustomSQL_TITLE_Begin and CustomSQL_TITLE_End**
 
Any suggestions?
 
 **The last set of bookmarks, worked fabulously for creating a title to print for the Fragment in the Report and hide if there was no data pulled for that Fragment.
 
 Thanks!
