Hi all

 

I have a drop down that has multiple options on, however I want another control to unhide if the selection is anything except N/A, however when in preview it just doesn't work and appears as normal regardless.

 

not(equals(PolicyType, "N/A"))

 

Any ideas? Last hurdle to getting my form good to go after lots of research 🙂

Hi @kindrex 



 



wouldn´t you just hide the control if your multi-select contains "N/A"?



For this you can use the inArray Function



inArray(your_multi_select,"N/A")

 


Hi @Tarf 



 



Thanks for helping on this one too 



 



I don't think I've been clear in my description apologies.



 



The user can only make one one selection from the list which has loads of options, I.e.



N/A, End of Day, Clear Desk etc. 



 



If the user was to select any of the options I want the control to appear unless they select N/A then it should remain hidden.



 



I did try your solution to no avail sadly.



 



Thanks again for any help you can give 


Hi @kindrex,



 



depending on whether your control is a lookup or a choice field either



parseLookup(my-control) == "N/A"



or



my-control == "N/A"



should work as a hide rule.


Thanks again @Tarf , only issue i have is the control is still showing when no selections have been made. Its more that I want it to appear when everything but n/a is selected if possible? 


Hi @kindrex,



try combining the working rule with



isNullOrEmpty(my-control) || <rule_before>

 this then hides a control when the dropdown is either empty or "N/A"


Epic thank you
