Concatenate a constant to drive a parameter

[Wyman, Michael]

Hello,

I would like to implement a table of constants that end in some identifier (_101, _102)

I then have a base parameter, say X. so the constants would be X_101, X_102, etc

Is there a way to concatenate a user input box that types in say "101" and then makes it so that the parameter X is fed by X_101? If not, is there a different method that I can drive a series of displays with a selected condition?

[Chant, Adam]

Michael,

There is no way to directly build a parameter name to then be assigned to a display or object like that. Generally what is common is to have unique display objects with the Parameter already assigned to each and set the Visible property to reflect the desired state.

An alternative would be to make a derived parameter with a complex inline Choose() function where the index would be the desired parameter from your selector and the choice would be the intended parameter value to display in the display object.

Thank you,
