How to create a Data Transform to create a Page of a different class to the input ?
Does anybody have an example of how this could be done ?
Use a Data Transform to take an input page (say a report - one with 'pxResults' in it); and create an arbitary page of different class based on that data ?
Thanks !

Hi,
I don't think there is any action present in Data transform to create a page. Others can comment on this.
This can be done via activity using Loop and Methods.

One way to do create a new page is refer a data page which can be declaratively initialized and then this data transform could set properties on it (provided it is not read only).
Otherwise, what Mounika has mentioned above is correct. There is no "Page-New" option in data transforms.

Thanks for this: but assuming that I have a Source Page (which is populated), and a Target Page (which is created, but has no properties set) - how do I set Properties on the Target Page based on the Source Page. (The pages are 'siblings' not in a parent-child realtionship).

The "Pages & Classes" tab can refer to the source page and the data tranform could use the "Set" action to set the value on properties of the target page with the source page properties. This would be similar to how "Property-Set" works in an activity.

Did you try the Append to / Append and map to methods?
