Tricky formula for Repeating Field

Featured Replies

I have a field called GraphicAlerts with 5 repetitions. This field does not contain any 'usable' data, its sole purpose is simply to display graphic 'red flags' to the user when certain criteria are met.

Q: Using a calc formula (not a script), is it possible to specify which repetition to put the graphic into?

For example:

If(

IsEmpty(Date);

get the arrow graphic from gGraphicsContainer and put it into repetition 4 of the GraphicAlerts repeating field ;

""

)

Hope that makes sense. Suggestions greatly appreciated.

Yes, it is possible.

Case(

IsEmpty( Extend ( Date ) ) and Get ( CalculationRepeatitionNumber ) = 4; gGraphicsContainer [ 3 ]

)

where the repeating global field gGraphicsContainer [ 3 ] contains the arrow.

Thank you for your reply raybaudi, your formula works great. I wasn't aware of the Get(CalculationRepetitionNumer) function. Just learned something new!

Cheers
