I would like to make a text object or a header with some text and include getcurrentselections(), - but i shows the field and value - I only want the value - is there a way to do this?

Hi,

If you want to view the current selections of a particular field, use GetFieldSelections(FieldName)

I am not sure if there is an option to show the selections of all fields without the field name.

Hello,

GetCurrentSelections() returns all current selections for current document, so it will take several lines. By default, separator between fields, should you have more than one field selected is line feed character, in this case, it doesn't make any sense to show only values as you won't know to what field they refer.

GetFieldSelections(FieldName) will return a comma separated list of values for the field specified. If the field might have more than six values, you should use instead

GetFieldSelections(FieldName, ',', 50)

Hope that helps

Hi,

By default GetFieldSelections display everyting, Label + Selected value.

If we use GetFieldSelections (field) , it only returns one field.

What if i want to display all selected fields values only? not the label of the field? just the selected data. is it possible?

Thanks.

I've been wanting to do the same. Its time consuming to have to list each using GetFieldSelections(field)
