Text Expression (textExpression)

The Text Expression property is a PXML string expression value to calculate a page number string.

In the Properties view, this property is the Text Expression property in the Text category.

This is a property of the PAGENOBOX, which expects a PXML string expression value to calculate a page number string. When set, the value of the property overrides all other formatting relevant properties of the PAGENOBOX, although the text property is still used to set the length.

Type: PXML.

See functions and examples in Using a page number string.

If a value for this property, or for the X-Size or text properties, is not set, a default length is used in calculating the page number string.
