Checkbox Visibility

[jmcgrew]

Ok I am very new at this so sorry in advance. What I am trying to do is I have a dropdown that list different locations and I have two check box's that I want there Visibility to change per what is selected in my dropdown (ex. dropdown set to "General" both checkbox's are not visible, dropdown set to "Oklahoma" checkbox1 is visible but not checkbox2)

Thanks for any help

Hi and welcome,

without knowing your code I can give you this sample:

Code (autolisp) Select Expand


  (defun c:myproject_myform_mycombo_OnSelChanged (intRow strItem)
    ;; intRow 0 = General
    ;; intRow 1 = Oklahoma
    ;; intRow 2 = Berlin
    (dcl_control_setvisible myproject_myform_mycheckbox1 (= intRow 1))
    (dcl_control_setvisible myproject_myform_mycheckbox2 (= intRow 2))
  ); c:myproject_myform_mycombo_OnSelChanged


Regards, Fred

Fred,

Here is my code and odcl, its pretty rough but working on it.

Hi,

as I mentioned you should catch the event OnSelChanged, but not OnDropDown. OnDropDown is normally used if the list should be filled right before the user is going to open the dropdownlist. I recommend you to change your code the way I've shown in my sample.
