Adrian,
yes I did read your solution and now I have also tested and solved the
problem.
Thank you.
BTW, since this is something that will happen more than once (above all if
we replace some splitted english-ordered sentences with a whole label) I ask
for a best practice to do it.
I propose the one that I have implemented right now as following:
In order to display the following UILabel:
<property key="ProductOnlyShowingFirstN">
<value xml:lang="en">NOTE: Only showing the first ${viewSize} of
${listSize} products. To view the rest, use the Products tab for this
category.</value>
<value xml:lang="it">NOTA: Sono elencati solo ${viewSize} di ${listSize}
prodotti. Per visualizzare gli altri, usa il pannello Prodotti di questa
categoria.</value>
</property>
I have used the following line in the actions tag:
<set field="uiLabelMap_ProductOnlyShowingFirstN"
value="${uiLabelMap.ProductOnlyShowingFirstN}"/>
and the following line in the .FTL file
${uiLabelMap_ProductOnlyShowingFirstN}
So the guideline could be that the field used has the same name has the
UiLabel except the "." replaced by the "_"
Does this make sense?
Thank you,
Bruno
P.S.
To implement this it has been necessary to change the screen xml file and
the ftl file.
I also tried to use the #assign tag in order to have this local to the .FTL
file with the following lines:
<#assign uiLabelMap_ProductOnlyShowingFirstN =
uiLabelMap.ProductOnlyShowingFirstN>
<div>${uiLabelMap_ProductOnlyShowingFirstN}.</div>
but this does not work :-(
There are no way to make this work?
