Directives for Alpha Pictures (Magic xpi 3.x)

The table below provides a list of positional directives for Alpha pictures.

Directive

Description

X{n}

A placeholder for any character.

U{n}

Instructs Magic xpi to convert the character to uppercase.

L{n}

Instructs Magic xpi to convert the character to lowercase.

#{n}

A placeholder for a digit (0-9) or any of the following symbols ( . , - + * / ).

Note that during data entry, Magic xpi verifies that the user typed a digit in the positions held by #. Any other character typed in these positions is rejected and an error message is issued.

For variables with Alpha attributes, each X, U, L, or # directive defines the type of character. The sum of Xs, Us, Ls, and #s defines the size of the variable.

Note:

n - represents the count value.

{ } - represents an optional part.
