Configuration for enabling and disabling containers from interface condition

[SJohnson257]

Having the most difficult time understanding what the configuration for a set of interface tools that will, if the condition is selected enable a container to filter the data stream and if it is not selected will enable a container that allows for the full data to flow through.

Formulas used for the condition have been:

 - [#1]

 - ToNumber([#1]) = 1

 - IF [#1] THEN 'False' ELSE 'True' ENDIF

With both switching the action tools between Enabled and Disabled and swapping out the connection between both containers.

I am at a loss.

 Have you tried a condition tool between the action tool and the radio button or whatever interface tool that you are using?

Thank you @ChrisTX, I'll take a look at this

Hi @jordanmount6, 

I have considered using radio buttons, but aren't they mutually exclusive? The user needs to be able to select one, both or neither.

My use case is where the user can only select one option but i'm assuming that a check box would accomplish one or more than on

Hi @jordanmount6, 

I'm looking at that option to use a select box for the user to make multiple choices from the solution workflow on the page @ChrisTX provided.

Hi @ChrisTX,

Still at a loss. I considered all the links on the page you sent me to. One that utilized a list box to choose which container to 'enable' seemed most promising. But, the list box does not allow the user to choose or enter a variable to pass to the filter. Also, the remaining links were working with radio buttons, which I understand to be mutually exclusive. The user would not be able to choose one or more of the options simultaneously.

If you want a List Box and a variable to pass to the filter, it sounds like you may need multiple user interface tools.
