Hi there,
So i have four types of glazings with four different u values and such. I was thinking of applying yes/no parameters for the glazing types, and text paramters for the u values. the syntax in my mind would be:
if (glazing 1, 3.5,"") & if (glazing 2, 4,"") & if (glazing 3, 5.5, "")
as you can see, what im trying to achieve is that if a certain type of glazing is toggled, a certain value will appear within the u value box. I was able to get one function to work but combining them has been difficult. the ideal scenario would be:
if glazing 1 is yes, u value has a value. if not, check if any other is yes. If any other is yes, return their value. if no box is checked, return no value.
you cannot check more than one box... this one i really have no idea how to do. I tried not(glazing1) and was only able to get one to work. but how do I make it that I was only able to choose one single check box?
thanks!

because then I would have to duplicate the number of glazing elemnets in the model and apply yes/no parameters to them. These glazings will have to be parametric constrained and to apply these contraints to all of the glazing types will take extreme amount of work of duplication. In reality the client does not need to see the change of glazing materials. Plus the additonal hidden glazing types will increase the already large file size as well...

It's a material change..... Very very small. And it will schedule!

My point is to allow the user to have the option to choose from 4 types of glazings.. not let them change the glazing material themselves.
