List

In the interface that you create, a List control presents a predefined list of text values.

In the pane on the right, set the properties of each control as described below.

Attributes

Name Labels the control with the text you type.
Design Table Variables Lists available variables from the design table. Select one to assign to the control.
Type Sets a method for populating the list:

List

Populates the list with values you type in Values.

Range from Design Table

Populates the list with values from the design table spreadsheet. In Range, specify the range of cells that contain the values, in the format X1:X10. For example, if the design table spreadsheet has values in cells H8, H9, H10, H11, and H12, type H8:H12 to list the five values in the list box control.

Data

  Parent (Not available for the first control.) Creates a context-sensitive control by setting different values for this control depending on the value selected for the parent control. If you specify one or more data parents, the Values or Range table expands to include a column for each combination of the data parent values, so you can assign a different list for each combination.
Add Parent Adds another Parent field.
  Values Populates the list with values you type. Type one value per cell. Press Enter or Tab to move between cells.

Visibility

Parent (Not available for the first control.) Defines whether the control is shown or hidden, depending on the value selected for the parent control. Select None to make the current control always visible.
Show (Available if you select a parent.) Specifies if the current control is shown or hidden for each value of the parent control.
