Hello!

I am struggling to create a master shape that could change its layer membership according to a specific shapedata parameter
(a pre-defined list of values).
For example, a shape that has a shapedata parameter "Color" with three predefined values {"Red", "Green", "Blue"}.
What is needed, is that when I change the "Color" value, the shape gets associated with the corresponding layer.

Thank you in advance for any clues!

Hello Kave,
here is what you asked.
use the Index and lookup function (explained really well to me by Mr. John Goldsmirth in the this post - Reply #15 http://visguy.com/vgforum/index.php?topic=4993.15 ) and link the result to the layer membership in the shapesheet.

:)

Good Luck!
