Array action on attributes / fields

[awashingtonCH46X]

Hello all,

I've been playing with this idea for a bit now and just can't seem to find a solid way of solving it. In an ideal world, I would like to use the array action set to array attributes that can be edited in the enhanced attribute editor (I know not possible). But I have tried using fields to pull the value from the attributes and array those, but if I regen the fields won't update to the correct value.

Ill attach a demo block in case there is any confusion.

If anyone can help, please give an explanation so I can get a better understanding on how this works, thank you.

I tried to do that years ago. It's not possible. I wanted an attribute to show up in several locations depending on the visibility state. If that's similar to what you are trying, I can post it.

It might apply to the block I want this concept to work for but I can really only picture it working through an array. If you want to post it, I'd like to see what work you've done and maybe try to replicate it.

You could make something that looks like an array but its really a series of objects and attributes in a series of visibility states. The visibility state is triggered by the length of the linear parameter.  Setting the linear parameter to an increment would allow you to enter those increment values into a block table and select  a visibility state to match it.

I like the outside of the box thinking, I'll give this a try today and get back to you!

I ended up getting the block to work but management decided they liked my first version better;(

Thanks for the help!
