Hi,
I am using the Multiple Substitutes feature in a Text Expander. Is there a way to control what is displayed in the choice menu? For example. This is my string.
Code: Select all
.mystring
Thank you for your interest in Product A. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nunc sit amet nulla in nisl rhoncus luctus.
/Thank you for your interest in Product B. Nullam a lorem consequat, consequat elit vitae, tempus velit. Aenean facilisis eget est eget fringilla.
/Thank you for your interest in Product C. Phasellus id velit viverra, tristique nibh vitae, pulvinar lectus. Vestibulum aliquam est sed ex laoreet scelerisque.
The above displays like this in the choice menu:
Code: Select all
1 Thank you for your interest in Product A. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
2 Thank you for your interest in Product B. Nullam a lorem consequat
3 Thank you for your interest in Product C. Phasellus id velit viverra
Is there a way to have it display the choices like below (but still add the entire text)?
Code: Select all
1 Product A
2 Product B
3 Product C
Thanks,
Victor

Yes, using description separators. By default it is "::" but you can change it in Text Expander settings.
Code: Select all
Product A::Thank you for your interest in Product A. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nunc sit amet nulla in nisl rhoncus luctus.
/Product B::Thank you for your interest in Product B. Nullam a lorem consequat, consequat elit vitae, tempus velit. Aenean facilisis eget est eget fringilla.
/Product C::Thank you for your interest in Product C. Phasellus id velit viverra, tristique nibh vitae, pulvinar lectus. Vestibulum aliquam est sed ex laoreet scelerisque.
