Batch Macro inside of Standard Macro - How to view Batch Macro Interface

I have situation that i feel like i may struggle to fully explain but i'll try

 

Situation:

 

  • I have a batch macro inside of a standard macro.
  • The batch macro has outputs to create separate tabs for each parameter/run in an excel file. It also has a file browse so a user can select the output location
  • The list of values that feeds the control parameter is part of a standard macro that the batch macro lives inside of (from a list box so the user can define which parameters get passed through the batch macro)

Problem:

 

  • The standard macro interface does not allow you to view the batch macro interface settings (save as location)
  • The standard macro output still unions the batch output

Question:

  • Is there a way to make the save as file browse interface in the batch macro appear in the standard macros interface that the batch macro lives inside of?

OR

 

  • Is there a way to have a batch macro where the list of user defined parameters that feeds the control parameter is an interface function that doesn't need an input into the batch macro (via the upside down question mark)?

 

Happy to help clarify and send screenshots/workflows. Wanted to set the stage first given i'm not sure if my phrasing makes sense.

Hi, @apatel1501 

 

You can add a new file browse interface via action beyond your file browse interface of batch macro in your standard macro canvas, like Matryoshka dolls, It's ok !
