Merge fields not substituted about glabels-qt

[jimevins]

If you actually see the literal substitution fields in the print/preview, this means there is a syntax problem. If the field is replaced by empty text, it means the syntax is good but refers to an empty or non-existent field.

Have you tried using the "Insert substitution field" button? It will insert only valid merge fields or variables in the correct syntax. If it is grayed out, it means there is no merge source or user
variables defined.

At this point I can only guess, without specifics. Attaching screenshots of the editor, merge, and print tabs, would probably help.

Also, with one copy, are you getting the correct number of labels (one per selected merge record)?

Hi,
First tried with the original file created in gLabels.
Then tried to replace old fields re-adding them using the mentioned button.
In every cases, no substitution happens and literal fields remain.

Please find screenshots, original gLabels file, file after opening and various tries in gLabels-Qt, as well as data CSV file

Seems like the number of labels is ok

Thanks for your support

Edit: kept on chasing the problem and found that gLabels didn't like the field names (1st line) in my file ! Sanitized TSV file removing all spaces, points, and accented characters and substitution finally happened \o/
Clean csv file as well as adapted gLabel file with new fields names added to Gdrive folder.

May I rename this issue as a feature request for support for spaces, punctuation and special characters in field names ?

Just committed 2d56507, which should address this.
