Continue connection when Container disabled?

Carluccio555

I have a Formula tool as follows:

 

True: process 100 lines of data

False: process every line of data 

 

How can I set this formula tool to a simple on/off switch so that if it is On only 100 lines gets processed and if it is OFF the connection just continues through.

 

I tried using container but could set a 'passthrough' for it? Im guessing an interface tool of some kind?

Hi @Carluccio555 

 

Sounds like the detour tools might be helpful here. You can set an checkbox interface tool to allow your users to toggle which way the data goes.

Like what @Luke_C posted, is right on. If you want the delineation to happen dynamically, you'll likely need to use a controller/conditional anchor to change the path and develop a Boolean for the logic.

This can be done on both containers or the detour tool.
