In script : clip.SetParentId(<insert group id>); does not work

[vict75]

Carefully tried many variations on this example:

if(clip.AsciiTextMatchesRegex(".*.+\\@.+\\.(com|net|edu|gov).*") == 1)
{
    clip.SetParentId(<insert group id>);
}

return false;

With and without the if statement, make sure the regexp always matches with ".*" looked up 2 different group id via property Window Title. No luck. Replaced SetParentId with clip.SetAsciiString(newString), that works for the paste but new string is not saved in the buffer.

manually moved a clip to group 3089, works fine:

I'm running the Store install version, maybe that matters. I also had to look hard for my log file.

It's working for me. The SetParentId only works on copy scripts, not on paste scripts. So when ingesting the clip the parent will be set. Make sure your script is in the on copy script section.

Also make sure your parent id is set correctly.

1. open the groups menu
2. right click on the group and open the properties window
3. 
4. in the properties window in the title bar it shows the id, sorry it's not very obvious
5. 
6. use that id in your copy script
