What's happening with the 2nd value in this repeated variable? #190
Comments
Hey @JessicaFrank This is how it currently works: Addendum values work only for non repeating variables and answers that are too long for their box. RepeatVars and their answers expect one box per answer, and all those boxes must be grouped. The code does not currently handle overflowing extra answers that exceed the number of grouped boxes. Tenant alias has multi answers but doesn't wrap and street address is not repeating and does wrap. This is the way the code is currently written to handle these two scenarios. |
Would adding overflow capabilities to repeat variables be a complete redo of how repeat variables are handled in the DAT? I'm looking for a complexity estimate before I go back and tell the author it's not possible right now or try to come up with a work around for her. |
@JessicaFrank i think it would be a full feature thing - repeat vars are essentially currently expected to be rendered like table style (aka stacked grouped boxes), and would have to think about how it would render on an addendum. Example: Current work around maybe: |
@mikemitchel ran up a test with a custom addendum. I can't group across different pages. I'll have to think more about a work around. |
Report from an author that their second defendant's information isn't getting populated on the PDF template. Here's what I'm seeing:
Enter multiple defendant information like what's in this answer file:
answer (99).zip (I zipped it b/c .anx files aren't allowed to be uploaded)
Look at the caption at the top of page one. Section at issue is pointed out here
Only Jane Ann Doe's information is showing up when assembled. The second defendant in my example anx is Mark Thomas Smith.

The variable is set to hold multiple values. I confirmed in anx that there are two values held by [Tenant full name with alias TE]. It's also set to overflow to an addendum and the addendum label is there.
No addendum is created. Seems like repeated values aren't treated as overflow, but also aren't included even if there's sufficient space (like with the name variable).
What's happening to the second value? @AnubhavDhingra

The PDF template at issue is the 3rd one called EA Complaint AOC Recommended
