CM4D Variables Overview

CM4D variables are used to dynamically access and display specific document and database information.

·        Each CM4D variable is delimited by a starting and ending tilde character (e.g. ~label~).

·        Most variables are not case sensitive.

·        An annotation which contains a variable that relies on database information must have a DataSource defined in its properties.

·        If a variable does not resolve, errors will be displayed as defined in the Annot Error Handling section of the Document Defaults dialog.

·        Variables often have parameters that are combined with the variable to display different information. Parameters are added to variables and separated by commas (e.g. ~annot,type~).
