I get many queries about property transformations on wires or ways to change the output of one component before it gets sent to another component over a wire. Kevin Bergin created a Property Converter component where you can use script to do pretty much whatever you want to the string. This is an excellent component for many reasons. Composite applications support “hidden” components and when this component is on the screen you can wire a source property to it, transform the data, and then wire the converter component to the target component. Here is a flow of the component and the data.
Kewl. Can I use that one to:
– “hang it between” a LiveText recognizer and an action?
– do something like 24Dec09 -> 24/12/2009

Yep, just map a content type to the component and then wire the transform component to something else.
