Dynamic Block Visibility

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a dynamic block that can be changed between foul water (FW), surface water (SW) and grey water (GW), as well as changing between different drainage components e.g. shallow access chamber, silt trap etc.

 

At the moment, I've managed to create a block for SW, FW and GW (Attached). I'm not sure if the above is possible or not as I think it requires an additional visibility parameter whereas you can only have 1.

 

Please leave a comment if you have any solutions/suggestions! (I want two separate drop down arrows - one for water type, other for drainage component type, rather than just one drop down arrow which consists of both)

You need to create a double lookup parameter.

 

See the attached drawing to see how it works.
