How to center dynamic images (via Powerpoint templates) with different width?
In Powerpoint I am using a dynamic image, something like this: {$imageVariableName|insert_image:117:0:0:41}
The potential images differ in width. The resulting PDF file has the image aligned on the left. The image should be aligned in the center. Is this possible?
This is the result I want (for the 2nd images):

Field Attribute is not changed via API
I tried to use API in R studio to modify my form. I want to create a numerical field with 2 dp and min of 0. I created a function to do so called create_fields.
create_fields \<- function(api_token, form_id, label) {
# API URL for adding a field
url \<- paste0("<https://www.formstack.com/api/v2/form/">, form_id, "/field.json")
# Payload
payload \<- sprintf(
"{\"hide_label\":false,
\"description_callout\":false,
\"required\":false,
\"readonly\":false,
\"hidden\":false,
\"uniq\":false,
\"colspan\":1,
\"sort\":null,
\"field_type\":\"number\",
\"label\":\"%s\",
\"decimals\":2,
\"min_value\":0}", label)
# API request
response \<- VERB("POST", url, body = payload, add_headers('authorization' = paste('Bearer', api_token)), content_type("application/json"), accept("application/json"),encode = "json")
# Return the API response
return(cat(response$status_code,"\\n",content(response, "text")))
}
I managed to connect to my test form but the numerical field generated just use default attributes (0 dp and no min value) rather than attributes specified in the function.
Regards,
Ray

Can an API changelog be added?
Recent API changes related to encryption passwords have been breaking our API. Is it possible to add a changelog for the API so we can have some knowledge that things have changed?

Using a maps to position a pin and collect the coordinates in the form
Hi, I'm wondering if there would be a way to embed a map view (Google Maps or any) to for the user to place a pin on it and then collect coordinates when they send the form.

Remove HTML document elements from JS embed?
Hi,
I've created a form and want to embed it using JS. However, the JS snippet seems to include HTML document elements:
document.write("<!DOCTYPE html>"+"\\n");
document.write("\<html lang=\"en\">"+"\\n");
document.write("<head>"+"\\n");
document.write(" \<meta charset=\"UTF-8\" />"+"\\n");
document.write(" \<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, initial-scale=1\">"+"\\n");
This makes it difficult for me to embed the form in the middle of an existing page.
How do I remove these HTML document elements?
Thanks!
