Pattern is a text string with any number of 'A', 'a' and 'N'
characters. During the value generation process the 'A' and 'a'
characters is replaced with a random letter (from 'A' to 'Z' and
from 'a' to 'z') and the 'N' character is replaced with a random
figure. {n} means iterate last sign 1 to n times. All the rest of
the pattern characters will be moved to the result value without
any changes.
If you want to specify several different patterns for filling a
field, you should use the "From the List" method and specify
patterns as values with the "Use list items as a pattern" mode
on.
You can use '\' character for escape next pattern sign. For
example, \a will be used as a 'a' letter without any
replacements.
There are easy pattern items:
- A - letter from 'A' to 'Z'.
- a - letter from 'a' to 'z'.
- N - digit from '0' to '9'.
- X - hexadecimal digit from '0' to '9' and 'A' to 'F'.
- {n} - repeater, value will be used from 1 to n times. n should
be from 1 to 999.
- {=n} - repeater, value will be used n times.
- {n;m} - repeater, value will be used from n to m times. n
should be less then m and both numbers from 1 to 999.
Pease refer to detailed pattern engine
manual (online).
