    Hi,

    I'm new to dynamic components so excuse me if this is obvious or the likes. My question is whether i can blank out/hide certain component options based on answers from previous options. For example, there is an option for sink and one for trash. However you cant have them both at once so if the user picks yes on the sink i need them to not be able to pick the trash also and vice versa. Is this possible? I hope that made sense, thanks for your help.

      I don't believe you can link the presence of a user input option (the appearance of the option on the component options dialogue) to an "if" statement, or similar logic, using the native dynamic component capabilities.

      You could, however, use "if" statements to control the output of the user's choices.

      An example:

      =IF(user_sink=true, user_trash=false, user_trash=true)

      The idea is that user_sink and user_trash would be user-controlled variables. Would something like that work?

        that would work but it would lose a bit of the aesthetic appeal i was looking for so i think im gonna need to rethink the whole idea. thanks alot for clearing it up, thats one headache over.
