Variables in CM4D

    1. Variable Categories

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~).
