I want to show the number of counts and the current index of the items within the generated document consisting of multiple items (e.g. column 1 - Nr: "1,2,3,4,5,..." and "Number of Items: x").

How do I get access to the .count and .index-information the document generator-task uses?

 

Best regards,

Christoph

  Hi Christoph Käferböck,

  you can use javascript global window variables in your template like this:

  [[{ window.dgcurrentindex=0; return ""; }]]
  [[loop]]
    [[{ window.dgcurrentindex++; return window.dgcurrentindex; }]] - [[Title]]
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
  [[end loop]]
  Total: [[{return window.dgcurrentindex; }]]

  Kind regards
