Unsupported Behaviour Regardless of that dataType, ANY variable (also "string" or "longtext" or "calculated", for example) which has a value which starts with "<TextFlow " and can be parsed as valid XML is inserted into a TextFrame's displayTextFlow as formatted text. The "value" of the variable remains a string, but it contains a valid TextFlow XML, as described in ? TextFlow and ITextLayoutFormat XML As you read, this behaviour might work, but is unsupported and might change in future versions. We strongly advise to use the FormattedText variable type to ensure futureproof compatibility. |
