Property listing - Option Set - Multiple Choices

Titiriga

Hello.

Is there a way to list in a label values of at least 2 propertyes (Option set - multiple choice) so that they are appended one after another? To be more clear, lets say you have property A, that has multiple values in a option set (A1, A2, A3, A4 ...etc) and the set values are A1 and A3 for example. And lets say you have another property called B, that has multiple values in a option set (B1, B2, B3, B4 ...etc) and the set values are B2 and B3. I want to list these values together automatically like this: A1, A3, B2, B3. My idea was to create a third property that sor of merges the previous 2, but I dont know how. The key here is that they are multiple choice options.

Can that be done?

Thank you.

Hi,

I have recreated your situation:

I managed to get them listed in autotext easily, by recalling them in a label, and I'm sure you can do that in schedules too.
Does that answer your question?

I used the basic label tool on an object which had those properties enabled. Recalled them with autotext.

Here you can see I have included these parameters in the object as per your example.

Properties that have multiple choices can't be called in another property as a parameter,

Thank you.

I kept trying to create another property to merge them. Didn't work. For my purposes your solution is excellent. Thank you
