Example - Data Parent in a List Control

In this example, a length is used as the data parent for a diameter being defined in a List control.

For a hollow shaft, you are creating a control for the inside diameter. Different diameters are available depending on which length is chosen. You specify the length variable as the data parent. Four columns appear in Values, one for each length value (5, 7, 10, and 13). In each column, you type the inside diameters available for that length. The shaft with length 7 is only available as a solid shaft (no inside diameter).
