String before leading token (spaces). The leading token is one or more characters that appear in front of the menu item description. These characters are often used by the host, to identify the menu item value. The leading token may be for example a number such as 1, 2, 3, or a letter such as a, b, c. Defining the string that appears in front of the leading token, helps identifying the menu pattern. By default the value of this field is two spaces.
Maximum length leading token (1).
Delimiter (a period '.'). Define one or more possible delimiters. A specific menu will be identified only if it has exactly one type of delimiter, but the same transformation definition can match several different types of menus
String after list item (spaces). Type in the string that appears after the menu item. By default the value of this field is two spaces.
Selection field (current cursor position).
Throughout the Transformation wizard screens, there are a number of
fields whose values you can set using variables. The possible available
variables that can be used are determined according to the original pattern.
There are two types of variables: text variables such as
$(text),
$(line), $(title) and
numeric variables such as $(text.length),
$(line.column). You can automatically complete the field to the
first variable that matches the text by pressing CTRL+SPACE after
""$(..."". The following table describes the different
variables and attributes available for each type of transformation.
