Catalogreport() should report index too

Post by LittleBiG »

Please add the {Index} to the template of this command. It would give a chance to run a catalog entry by its caption.

+ 1 for this wish. I was going to wish for this myself and never got to it. Please see the last few entries on this thread viewtopic.php?f=5&t=19221 where jupe and I discussed the value of having catalogreport return the index which would enable us to use the indexes in SC catelogexecute.
As mentioned in the help file, currently we can only get the index by looking at the properties box. Which doesn't make the SC catalogexecute command very useful at least not to its full potential. So a new variable under template_category called {index} should do it...
Well, this would certainly make the catalogexecute much more valuable. We could mimic catalog items quite easily in menus and other scripts. Thanks.
