Setting values to variables that are not set
« on: November 26, 2016, 05:47:59 AM »
With VoiceAttack 1.6.1.2 if I try to set a text value 'foo' to '{TXT:not appearing in this profile}' then check 'foo' it contains the text 'Not set'.  Is this intended behaviour, as opposed to 'foo' being not set?

Yes. The token is parsed to text, so when it returns "Not Set", the text variable will contain the parsed text "Not Set".

Tokens are used to represent something as text, and that something can be blank.  In order to indicate that a variable is not set (null) from within a token, something has to come back other than a blank so that the creator of the profile will know what is going on quickly and make sure that their variables are set prior to use.
