Hello there
i am trying to use the InData plug-in for IndesignCS to help me format and stylise an index of artists and their details and its not exactly working correctly and was hoping that somebody could give me a little help
Here is my prototype:
«fields name_two, name_one, attributed, birth, death, active, painting_title, acquisition_info, lender_credit, artist_copyright, other_loan»
«name_two», «name_one»«if attributed» «attributed»«endif» «birth»«if death»–«death»«endif»«active» «painting_title» «acquisition_info» «artist_copyright» «if lender_credit» photo credit: «lender_credit»«endif» «other_loan»
what i expect is for all the fields to be imported and before the lender_credit for the words 'photo credit:' to be inserted. the problem is that 'photo credit:' is inserted before the artist_copyright instead and if there isnt an artist_copyright its putting before the acquisition_info, even if there isnt a lender_credit
here is an example of what should be inserted (it should all run on but i have put returns in to show it easier)
Inchbold, (name_two)
John William, (name_one)
1830-1888 (birth-death)
Harvest Field, Stratford-Upon-Avon (painting_title)
bought Marshall Spink 1962 (acquisition_info)
photo credit: (lender_credit)
long term, renewable loan from private owner (other_loan)
but this is what is actually happening:
Inchbold, John William 1830–1888 Harvest Field, Stratford-Upon-Avon photo credit: bought Marshall Spink 1962
the words 'photo credit:' are before the acquisition_info. and the other_loan is missed off,
Why is this happening??
