using relations to change references

[cloughna]

I've got a field point that I would like to reference
different quilts based on a parameter I put in.

I can't seem to find the syntax for such an equation. I
imagine it would look something like this:

if MODDEL == "SHORT"
*this is where the fpnt would reference a quilt ID)
else
*this is where the fpnt would reference another quilt ID
endif

Thoughts?

I don't know of a way it can be done in this fashion. You
could copy your field point and have multiple groups that
reference different quilts, then turn on and off the ones
you want using Pro/Program or Family table...

You may be able to do it using Pro/Program. Although I'ma bit too rusty to walk you through it off the top of my head.

yes, Scott is right...u can do that by Pro-program..
Go to Tools/program/edit design...then find the feature you want to control and put relations as desired..
you can explore more by refering help for pro-program..

Agreed, if I can't get the relations to work this will be
my approach.
