Release: InData 6/7.1.9 for InDesign CS4/5/5.5

April 18, 2012 by car - Comments off

This minor release adds ExtendScript access to InData’s import methods on Mac OS as well as full scripting access to InData’s prototype story and story names.

Changes

• Added ExtendScript access to the importDataFrom() and importDataFromFile() methods in Mac OS.
• Added scripting access to a document object’s ‘prototype story‘ property (or ‘prototypeStory‘ in ExtendScript), which corresponds to the InData > Use Story as Prototype setting in the UI. This is a read/write property of documents and contains either nothing/null (if not set) or a reference to a story within the document containing the active prototype story.
• Added scripting access to a story object’s ‘InData story name‘ property (or ‘indataStoryName‘ in ExtendScript), which corresponds to the InData > Name Story… setting in the UI. This is a read/write property of stories and is a string containing the story’s InData name. Note that the InData name is separate from a story’s name and label properties.
