Macro for string length

[Daikoku]

A macro for getting the length of an input string would be great. sometimes input strings are too long in some of my projects and have to be shortened. therefore there should be a macro which returns the string lenth.

To cut the excess string - Run it through a regular expression. {10} where 10 - is the number of necessary symbols

That works fine but I still need a way to get the length of a string. I need that for some logic operations.

Yes, finding the length of a string is very useful. It is possible to get it with a small piece of javascript but a macro for this would be great.

Here's how to do with a piece of javascript

{-JS.Execute-|-var length='{-FieldData.FieldData-|-step-|-branch-}'.length;-}
