Changes the letter case.
When extracting information from the screen, this rule changes the data letter case before it is added to the XML document.
Notes:
• The Letter case extraction rule does not create new XML attributes.
• Since this rule does not create a new block type, it does not involve any specific XSL stylesheet.
Property | Type | Category | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Comment | String | configuration | Describes the object comment to include in the documentation report. This property generally contains an explanation about the object. |
Is active | boolean | configuration | Defines whether the extraction rule is active. |
Is final | boolean | configuration | Defines if the extraction is final, i.e. whether pending extraction rules should try to match on the current extraction rule matching blocks. If set to true, once the rule applies on a matching block, Convertigo doesn’t apply the following rules on this block. This can be used to prevent a block from being modified by other rules. |
Letter case | int | configuration | Defines the letter case policy. This property helps you choosing the letter case policy to apply on matching blocks between: • Upper case: matching blocks text will be transformed to upper case. • Lower case: matching blocks text will be transformed to lower case. • Lower case with first letter upper case: matching blocks text will be transformed to lower case with first letter upper case. |
Attributes | int | selection | Defines the presentation attributes on which the rule applies, i.e. the rule applies on blocks matching these presentation attributes. This property allows to configure the rule so that it applies only to parts of screens having specific attributes, for example green text on black background. Presentation attributes to configure are : • Color: Foreground color, Background color, to choose in a list of predefined colors or “not to take into account”. • Decoration: bold, reverse, underlined, blink, for each decoration choose between “with the decoration”, “normal” (i.e. without the decoration), or “not to take into account”. |
Screen zone | XMLRectangle | selection | Defines the screen zone on which the rule applies, i.e. the rule applies on blocks completely contained in this screen area. This property allows to configure the rule so that it applies only to areas of screens. All blocks found within the specified perimeter are matching this screen zone and can be processed by the rule. The screen area is defined through four coordinates: • x (area left corner), • y (area upper corner), • w (area width), • h (area height). All values are given in characters, with the upper left corner being (x=0, y=0). -1 represents an undefined value: (x=-1, y=-1, w=-1, h=-1) is an undefined area representing the whole screen, i.e. all blocks, whatever their coordinates, are matching this screen zone and can be processed by the rule. |
Type | String | selection | Defines, using a regular expression, to which block types the rule applies. For example, if set to: • static, the rule applies to blocks of static type only. • static | field, the rule applies to blocks of static or field type only. • [^field], the rule applies to all but field type blocks.
