IWP Script Continue/Cancel Automatically

[Jose Gonzalez]

I've spent sometime researching this but can't find the solution or answer; is it possible to automatically execute "Continue" in IWP when running a script with multiple pause/resume steps?

What I'm trying to achieve in IWP is background navigating and printing from three different layouts:

Go To Layout 1 then Print

Go To Layout 2 then Print

Go To Layout 3 then Print

Go To Original Layout

I know that script step "Pause/Resume" is not IWP compatible, nor is "Print" and "Print Setup". However, I'm optimistic that someone has ran into this before and has found a solution.

Thanks in advance,

Jose

Hi Jose,

I have usually used a robot for non compatible functions on IWP. Ie change a status field that triggers the robot to do the task. I have also been able to achieve a simulation of pausing on IWP by throwing IWP into an endless loop that is stopped by a high count limit in a reference field and incrementing a comparison field. The robot can also tell this field that its task is complete and then the script continues. Its a bit complicated to setup but it works. There does not seem to be a big hit on performance.

Hope that helps in some way.

Hi Lance,

Thanks for the feedback!

What exactly is a "robot", in terms of a solution?
