JobInfo Manipulation

Determine on Modifier Point / This JobInfo

If Determine on Modifier Point is selected, the Modifier uses the JobInfo that is selected when running the actual instance of the Modifier. If This JobInfo is selected, the particular JobInfo must be entered/selected in the combo box.

Replace existing

If checked, all existing values of the JobInfo chosen will be deleted before adding the new JobInfo value. If not checked, it will be appended to the array of values instead. The replace option does not necessarily make sense for all types of manipulation.

Value

The value parameter has different uses for each manipulation. Generally, it uses standard JobInfo Substitution for calculating the value. See the manipulation list below for details.

append

Appends (places at the end) the value of the parameter. The parameter value is passed through standard JobInfo Substitution before being appended.

assign

Assigns the given parameter value to the chosen JobInfo. The parameter value is passed through standard JobInfo Substitution before being assigned.

binary to hex

Interprets the value of the parameter as binary data and converts it to hexadecimal digits.

combine

Combines the individual array values of the JobInfo into one string divided by whatever the parameter evaluates to; for example, a semicolon.

delete

Deletes the given JobInfo. If no parameter is given, the entire JobInfo is deleted (all entries in the array). If a parameter is given, only that index in the JobInfo array is deleted.

hex to binary

Interprets the value of the parameter as a hexadecimal string and converts it to binary data.

jobinfo

The parameter value is passed through standard JobInfo Substitution and the result is a name of a JobInfo, the value of which is assigned to the chosen JobInfo.

prepend

Prepends (places in front of) the value of the parameter. The parameter value is passed through standard JobInfo Substitution before being prepended.

regex

Treats the value as a regular expression.

split

Converts the given JobInfo from a single value to an array of values. The value is split on whatever the parameter evaluates to; for example, a semicolon.
