So I’m writing a script that has many different rollouts. In one rollout there is a dropdown box in which you can select selection sets. In another rollout I have a button which, when pressed, needs to effect the selection set in the dropdown list located in the other rollout. But it is saying it is undefined. Is it undefined just because its in another rollout? How do I get around this?
Maybe you need to define your variable as “global”. So just write “global” in front of your definition like:
global mybox = box()
Its not a variable, its a dropdownlist. Is there a way to define a dropdownlist globally?
or put it into a global variable?
Hi,
You can access a rollout’s local variables, controls and function by using a direct reference, e.g. rolloutname.controlName
Sample code:
rollout rollA "Rollout A"
(
dropDownList ddl "Just some numbers" items:(for i = 1 to 10 collect i as string)
)
rollout rollB "Rollout B"
(
button bn "Print rollout A value"
on bn pressed do print rollA.ddl.selected
)
createDialog rollA
createDialog rollB
hOpe this helps,

That’s just what I was looking for, thankyou.
