Refresh on Checkbox list

crisg0112

is it possible to automatically refresh a checkbox list based on what the user selects from another checkbox list?

I have a form that looks like this

If the user selects ABC then it will display ALL the products for ABC, and if it selects ABC and ACME, it will select ALL the products for BOTH company.

My filter setting on the Choose Comp Products IS :
FIND Product WHERE Product.CompProduct IN ThisSeller.ChooseCompany

The issue is that unless I press SAVE/UPDATE, the bottom checkbox list doesn't refresh automatically

Any idea on how to get around this?

I know this works with drop down attributes because I just implemented it yesterday. My filter, however, does NOT include "THIS".

FIND Product WHERE Product.CompProduct IN ThisSeller.ChooseCompany

Hi Tom,

Yes, if I use the dropdown it works, but when you change it to a checkbox list it stops. It's like aware is not aware of the 1st selection yet. And there is no option to do a save when form changes option on a checkboxlist presentation

Chris,

You might want to try a trick we used to use in the "olden days" of AwareIM before auto-refresh existed .. hard to imagine, isn't it.

Pbrad figured out (there should be an old forum post) that you could have an attribute on the BO that is never used on the form. Create a dynamic rule that updates the attribute when the checkbox is changed. Not sure if it will work, but you might want to give it a shot.

Thanks Tom, will do!
