Temp variables from sub-xlate should be selectable in Host Xlate.
Cloverleaf 2209, Windows.
Being able to right button click and get a list of defined Xlate temp variables in the Source and Destination Panels is a nice feature.
However, when following an INCLUDE wherein the invoked Xlate establishes a temp variable, the temp variable established in the invoked Xlate does not appear in the pull-down for established temp variables.
Example an Xlate named ‘junk’ creates a temp variable named @nonsense. Another Xlate named ‘stuff’ INCLUDEs ‘junk’. Following that INCLUDE, the temp variable @nonsense does not appear in the pull-down list of established temp variables.
It would be nice if the temp variables established in a sub-Xlate were selectable in the Host Xlate – rather than Copying and Pasting, or keying in.
Your thoughts? Also please respond to the POLL attached.
