Tags for pathfinder profession skills

I'm very new to authoring in herolab, but have viewed many tutorials and read the manuals.

In the manual I found this page:
file:///C:/ProgramData/Hero%20Lab/data/pathfinder/authoring/pathfindereditwhere.htm#skills

which lists off all the skill codes ...
well sort of..

for the profession ones, it only displays "Profession (Other)"...
is there a list of all the codes for all the profession skills?

I'm trying to implement some situational text that affects them all, but I would need a complete list of all those codes to make my "adjustment" function to work.

please help.
 
Switch on "Enable Data File Debugging" in the Develop menu, then right click on the skill in the skills panel. At the bottom of the menu it says "Copy Unique Id (xxx) to Clipboard". The "xxx" is the unique id for the skill.
 
This should be in the Pathfinder forum, but if you're working on something that affects every profession skill you'll want to use a loop with the Helper tag that targets every profession skill. You don't need a full list.
 
Farling, thank you for the information.
I'll give that a whirl.

AndrewD2, thank you. is there a sample I can refer to?
 
turn on data file debugging and add a profession skill right click and "view tags for xxx" once that window pops up do a serach for profession or Helper. You'll find a tag this is "Helper.XXXXX" where it's pretty clear it's referring to the profession skill category.

You'll then want to make a foreach loop like

Code: 
foreach pick in hero from BaseSkill where "Helper.XXXXX"
  #situational[eachpick, "my monkey likes bananas", field[thingname].text]
  nexteach

Situationals need to run by Render 10000
 
Uber Thanks AndrewD2.

Exactly the assistance I was looking for...
(and oh so much easier than what I had done previously)
 
Glad to help. We all start somewhere. I asked all kinds of questions like this before I learned about the debugging stuff so that's like the #1 thing to learn about.
