how to show "conditions" within the (form)... I only want to see certain options

I have some part templates that I wanted to see if there was a way to apply conditions to the form itself. What I am asking is this. I have a template for creating machined parts.

 

Currently a "Material" is chosen; from that option only certain sizes are available within the "Stock OD" option.

What I'd like to do is set up the form so that the option for "Heat Treat" would not even be visible if the material chosen was not Stainless Steel.

As the form stands currently, the "Heat Treat" is always available... so it's confusing others because they feel they need to chose an option... even if the material they choose was Carbon Steel, Aluminum or Plastic?

 

Is there a way to apply a condition that if certain materials are chosen, that the "Heat Treat" (label) would not even be visible

Yes.

 

Please see that autodesk documentation, and the blogs available, such as the one below.

Thank you, one last question, is there a way to color code either fill or text color for the various Labels or their entries?

Not sure... If there was, it would be through the same window that Enabling Parameter is accessible through.
