Hey all!

I'm studying one idea here, but cant make too many things only with ideas.

I'm trying :

Create a form with combo box that user can choose one option for the line notes, would be 15 lines with 15 combos, and if necessary the user should be ale to type something insted of using that pre defined option from combo.

I have 2 ideas to make that work, untill now im trying with this 1º but nothing yet.

 

First Idea:

Create some (15) boolean parameters to enable each line of this NOTE and when the user choose or type one option, that text go directly to one textbox into a Symbol with the 15 lines. I actually dont know how to make this connection, tried some stuffs that found here on forum, but some are too complex.

 

Second idea:

Instead of create parameters to control everything, i would create all the controls by iLogic, but that is harder then create many and many parameters ? And by this way, i dont know how to conect one INPUTLIST BOX with a pre defined Global form, or, is easier to create a form by ilogic (if that is even posible ofc) ? And still dont know how to make the connection with the chosen option and the text box.

 

 

That is just to "centralize" all my notes, that can be variable for each drawing, that way i dont need to have too much symbols for each kind of note, or even have to type everytime that i need one diffent. Would be nice if the user could just choose them in the right sequence he wants.

 

Thanks!

Hi,

 

I do not understand what you exactly need, but it looks the idea 2 is similar to some post on how to use InputBOX, one of which I think may be useful for you:
