Check box groups

Ignition

Hi,

I have a dataset on my Vision window that contains a list of equipment names. I’d like to use a template repeater (or similar) to generate a check box for each equipment item and be able to keep track of which ones are or aren’t selected for a form input.

So far I’ve been able to generate the check boxes dynamically, but I can’t figure out a way to expose the information about which ones are and aren’t selected to the parent window. Has anyone solved this problem before or does anybody know an easy way to solve it that doesn’t involve creating these boxes individually?

Thanks!
Ben

Ah thanks - I hadn’t seen that and it sent me in the right direction!

The exact answer was actually at the bottom of this page for anybody looking to solve the same problem:
