Re: 4D Write PRO how to ...
Hi Keith,
Thanks… looks like we will have to wait a bit longer to resolve expressions in
the headers…

Re: 4D Write PRO how to ...
Thx Koen,
I had a look myself at the 4DWRPRO object in the debugger and like you say, not
much there that could be useful…

Maybe not super useful, but this:

Re: 4D Write PRO how to ...
Rudi,
Probably not for the faint-hearted! But I think it is not possible to access a
4D Write Pro object’s contents and you’re limited to the ST and WP commands.
I did a quick test:
C_OBJECT($wpObject)
C_TEXT($jsonText)
$wpObject:=WP New
ST SET TEXT($wpObject;"Hello World!")
TRACE
$jsonText:=JSON Stringify($wpObject)
SET TEXT TO PASTEBOARD($jsonText)
If I look at the object in the debugger, I can only see the general settings,
not the actual content.
This is what I get on the pasteboard:
{
"backgroundColor": 16777215,
"dateCreation": "2017-08-22T13:17:56.918Z",
"dateModified": "2017-08-22T13:17:56.918Z",
"title": "4D Write Pro New Document",
"version": 1.01
}
Not much to manipulate.

4D Write PRO how to ...
Using the old 4D Write, I loop through all the frames (frames 1-> 7), using ‘WR SET FRAME’ . Then I resolve the expressions. This way, all the references in the headers, text frames and footers are resolved before printing. I have opened an 4D Write document in 4D Write PRO, and everything is there, including headers and footers. However, I can’t find out how to select the headers and footers, so, when I use the command ST FREEZE EXPRESSIONS, and pass the 4D Write PRO area as object, only the references in the text part are resolved. The header keeps showing the references. How do I select the header frame in 4D Write PRO?

4D Write Pro (How to print page number?)
In v16, how do we print page numbers, when printing 4D Write Pro documents directly? That is, printing is initiated by either: 1) Invoking the WR PRINT command programmatically; or 2) User choosing “Document -> Print…" from Write Pro’s contextual menu. ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **
4D Write Pro (How to get a negative "first ident"?)
Can I specify a negative first indent with 4D Write Pro? In the legacy 4D Write I am able to specify a negative first indent relative to the left margin. This allows text in a paragraph to begin before the left margin. In other words, the first line of a paragraph can print before the left margin. When I copy a legacy 4D Write document (which has a negative first indent) to 4D Write Pro, the negative first indent appears to be lost: paragraph text starts at the left margin instead of some distance before the left margin. How do I get a negative first ident using 4D Write Pro? ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **
