Hi 🙂
I have a Visio used for elements running different protocol versions.
In one version, a value is available as a single parameter (e.g. 301).
In another version, the same value is provided through parameters in a table.
I want to display the new parameter if it exists, and otherwise fall back to the old one.
However, I cannot modify the protocol or add any extra parameters to use as a condition in Visio.
Is there a way in Visio to check if a parameter exists (not just if it has a value), and use that in a Show/Hide condition?
Thanks in advance
Lucía,
Hi Lucia,
Since a parameter is defined in a protocol, a possible option is to use the protocol name as condition, see Extended conditional shape manipulation. There is an example that use the protocol name:
<G>-G|Element:MyElement|Protocol|=MyProtocolName
Hope it helps.
Hi Miguel,
Thanks for your suggestion! ☺️
In this case, the protocol name is actually the same for both scenarios. The only difference between the elements is the protocol version, not the protocol name itself.
So unfortunately, I cannot use the protocol name as a condition to distinguish between them.
Thanks again for your help!
