Stiltsoft Table macros: handling of non existent tables in nested macros

[Carsten Wegner]

I am using the fantastic Stiltsoft macros and have Table Excerpts from different pages put into a surrounding Table Transformer macro, which itself is inside a Chart from Table macro.

Now maybe 1 or 2 or all tables are missing for Table Excerpt Include could not find any page. Table Transformer could handle this situation by showing (custom) notifications , but Transformer sits inside Chart from Table, which should be the only macro to give visible output. Currently there will be a mixture of output from Table Transformer - this even badly formatted/shown and Chart from Table.

What would help is if Table Transformer issued an empty table set to Chart from Table, but I could only manage to issue empty result sets, which is not the same as not table at all.

Hi,

thanks for your feedback. I came here, because there are many Stiltsoft related and answered questions in this place and I am not aware, that I am not allowed to ask such questions anymore. In the end it is something, that's happening inside Confluence.

I am a plain user of Confluence DC and the provided Stiltsoft macros. Going through my provider, who licened Confluence and Stiltsoft, will lengthen and complicate this simple question process unnecessary and extreme.

Please inform and forgive me, if I am doing wrong.
