Running version 2.3.0.0, when I open a project file, the Importer becomes unresponsive. I've left it running for up so 20 minutes and finally had to kill the process.
Is this a known issue? |
Version 2.4 is available
This version contains two improvements: 1 - you can now specify an annotation for an asset snippet without having to specify the actual file containing the asset (e.g. annotations for pictures and smart images). 2 - all warning and critical messages are now displayed in an error window. One example of this would be when a source data value doesn't match one of the known values for a tag. This should fix Acenoid's problem reported in post #476 and the second issue reported in post #477. |
Imported the data now - I noticed that even after ensuring the XLSX and the RW information is the same the "Transporter, Mittelschwer" entry has not been inserted after all. I manually edited now as it only were 4 entries. However it made me believe that maybe the "," (comma) might have been responsible for the missing entry?
I will try to test it again tonight. Oh - almost forgot - thanks for the updated version. Will give download it tonight, since i have to import a few more lists and want to test the issue above. Quick question regarding the images -- Since the error was File / URL not found , does it really mean I could link in my source file any URL? Cool! |

v1.16 When loading an image (see V1.11) it is now possible to specify a web URL instead of just a local file name. Note that the URL must point directly to the image, not to a web page which contains an image somewhere inside it. v1.17 When reading images from a web URL, follow web redirects which are issued by the web server. |
Really nice !

Hi again Farling,
Two more questions: 1. Have you given any thought to allowing the user to select which worksheet they want to import from inside the workbook? It's be nice to have import data stored in a single workbook, delineated by worksheet. YMMV. 2. Any recommendations on how to include statblock imports inside the spreadsheet? I have an HTML template prepped that works when I manually insert it into a topic, but I'd like to be able to include it in the spreadsheet, use a concatenate() function to insert the appropriate row data into the statblock, and then use the importer to send it to Realm Works. Aside from the issues having child <html></html> blocks may cause, the concat function is limited to 8192 characters in it's parameter set, so it seems like I may be dead in the water here. At any rate, thanks again for a great tool! -=Janrith |

Perhaps you could write a script (perl, powershell?) which will generate a lot of files from your HTML template; and then reference the filenames of these templates in your XLSX file? I haven't done much testing with importing stat blocks. I have a comment that it might only work with .rtf file; but I'd be interested to know what success you might have with other file types. (Maybe do Word mail merge to create a lot of .rtf files?) |
