ID of layout

[Илья Орлов]

Hello
I wonder, it’s possible to script a setting of id in layout book. I’m need to make ID, which is start numbering from variable number (Exampl: ID of layot is 12, but i need make it to 35, 23 – is start number). Difficulty in the fact that i need also have an workable autotext #Layoutid, to mark the number of list.
PS. Sorry for my English…

Hi,
As layout id can be reached as an autotext, you can not read it’s actual value in GDL script. But, if you want your layouts to start from 23, you can set that in the layout book settings.

Is it possable to make this
1. Mark layout by autotext(numbering = id of layout in layout book)
and at same time
2. Mark the same layout(and start ID from my nuber 23)

I think there is no solution for that in GDL, as you can’t reach the value of the layout id.

I use this

temp=REQUEST (“HomeDB_info”, “”, homeDBIntId, homeDBUserId, homeDBName, homeContext)
!—————————–
txt1=datetimestring
txt2=index+pop
txt3=homeDBIntId+pop

Pop – this is my variable start number

But script don’t use “homeDBUserId”(layout id) as arithmetical number (“homeDBIntId”(global ID) – used as number)
Can I convert “homeDBUserId” to number?

To convert strings to numbers, you can use the SPLIT function.

`n = REQUEST (“HomeDB_info”, “”, homeDBIntId, homeDBUserId, homeDBName, homeContext)
n1= SPLIT (homeDBUserId, “%n”, num)
n2 = SPLIT (GLOB_LAYER, “%n”, num1)
if num1 = 0 then
part1=”Prefix layout”
part2=”.postfix”
lenp1 = STRLEN(part1)
lenp2 = STRLEN(part2)
n = STRSUB(GLOB_LAYER,lenp1+2,STRLEN(GLOB_LAYER)-lenp1-lenp2-1)
n2 = SPLIT (n, “%n”, num1)
endif

I used this code to solve this problem. An example of an object can be viewed here
