default parameter that can be changed...

[Anonymous]

hi

I'm trying to setup a zone stamp that has a custom parameter. I want it to have a default value that can be changed if necessary. eg if zone category is 09 then var = 2 and that is displayed in the parameters box but if the user wishes to enter a new value for var then it should be available in the stamp parameters list and applied accordingly...

had a play but drawn a blank so far.

any ideas how to do this?

TIA

You have set yourself a tough task. While there may be a tricky way do just what you want, the easiest thing is to have a separate parameter that allows the user to select a "default" or "custom" value. This would then instruct the code to calculate the value according to the zone number or allow/require the user to enter a value. The details depend on just what you want to do. There are too many possible variations for me to go any further.
