[Help] Hierarchical Consumable list?

VioneT, 14 days ago

Since you have both items in the region item. Currently you have it like:

<span style="color:#323232;">The [r = regions.selectOne, r.name] region contains [r.state]
</span>

But, since you have stored the item in r you can just swap them like so:

<span style="color:#323232;">[r = regions.selectOne, r.state] is in the [r.name] region
</span>

Also, a tip to get the name of the list (to not need the name property in the item) you can do:

<span style="color:#323232;">[r = regions.selectOne, r.state] is in the [r.getName] region
</span>

Thanks so much, @VioneT that’s perfect!

Any tips on creating my consumable list output with Region+State?

You can get a consumable list of the states with r.state.consumableList, then you can have it like:

<span style="color:#323232;">[r = regions.selectOne, rscl = r.state.consumableList, rscl.selectOne] is in the [r.name] region, as well as [rscl.selectMany(3).join(', ')].
</span>

That’s very cool… but I kind of need the opposite - I have the consumable list of regions working at the bottom of the page, but I don’t know how to get a random state to show for each (consumable) region:

First, you need to create a new variable, then just like the first one, you only need to change the regions list to the rcl consumable list like so:

<span style="color:#323232;">[r = rcl.selectOne, r.state] is in the [r.name] region <br>
</span><span style="color:#323232;">[r = rcl.selectOne, r.state] is in the [r.name] region <br>
</span><span style="color:#323232;">[r = rcl.selectOne, r.state] is in the [r.name] region <br>
</span><span style="color:#323232;">[r = rcl.selectOne, r.state] is in the [r.name] region <br>
</span>

You can use other variables other than r.
