showing only text of variable value in template

[former_member730190]

I have info_field_item_1 in my template which shows a variable value. The variable value shows up as key and text. I just want to show the text. Is this possible?

Characteristic property ( text or key ) defines what value to be shown , no matter whether you are giving a variable or a constant on that characteristic.

Also in RSA select Info object -->Business explorer tab > General settings> display (set as text )

shafi - i changed the display property in the query and the view, but it still doesn't work. It is a hierarchy variable, may be that is the reason? I also changed the hierarchy node display property. No luck.

Neeetika - I don't want to change the characteristic property, it will affect all the other places where the characteristic is.

Make the changes in the Characteristic Proerties at the Query Designer. Change the Display As option to Key

But it's not the characteristic I am displaying. It's the variable value.

Hi,

Even though its a variable value, the variable willbe defined on a charecteristics right. So you need to change the display property of that charecteristis in the query in the data provider associated with the info field.

Please note that changing the property will also change it in the query if its being displayed in teh layout.

I would suggest use a java script to read the variable value and display it in the layout.

Regards.

Shafi.
