Summary

With the plugin “SC::List – format value lists” you can export different values from value lists (e.g. the unformatted value). Also you can customize the export in the extended settings.

Example

Insert the attribute and select the function “SC::format value lists” in the dropdown menu.

In this example we show you the different output from an unformatted and a formatted value of a value list.

Click on the red marked button for the extended settings, a new window opens.
Here you set your value that should be transfered to your system.

Value Description Example
Transform the source value using this plugin Define which formatted value should be formatted “cs formatted value”/”cs unformatted value”
Delimiter between references Here you configure which separator should be used between the references.  |
Start with element x for multi-references (use -1 to reverse direction) Here you configure at which reference the output of the values should begin (only for multi-references). Set negative numbers for the reverse direction.
Number of elements to be returned Insert here a decimal number that decides how much parts to send of the reference.
Force return of the references/values as array If this is activated the plugin will set for every value or reference a new array.
Alternative formatting This plugin will be executed if it is required by a condition.
