Clone not working in designer control script

OL Connect Professional Designer
1

Why am I getting error “Cannot find default value for object.” when trying to create a new print section in a control script? I’ve tried a lot of different things and can’t seem to get past this. I’ve removed everything except for just this line “var testclone = merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections[‘test’].clone();” and I get the same error.

Hi Rick,

Should it rather be…

var testclone = merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections[“test”].clone();

Regards,

Make sure you are running PlanetPress Connect v1.5 at least. The clone() function was introduced in 1.5.

Either of the below expressions should work in v1.5:

var testclone = merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections[‘test’].clone();

var testclone = merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections[“test”].clone();

var testclone = merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections.test.clone();

Thanks Rod, that’s the issue then. -rick
