CheckListBox

[triplexpresso]

Hi all, I've tried to make CheckListBox and get output in case it's True, could anyone be able to advise how to get that done. Thanks, James

import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs

K1 = [('aa',True),('bb',True),('cc',False),('dd',False)]

Kfactor = rs.CheckListBox(K1, "Input Effective length factor, K", "Kfactor")
print Kfactor

You do have one too many arguments supplied to CheckListBox but the last one seems to be ignored... So the code you posted seems to be working. It returns a list of tuples with (name,value) the value being true or false depending on what was checked. What is it you want to do? Are you looking to get some numerical input from the user? You would need RealBox for that, or you could look at PropertyListBox for a name/value combination.

Hi Mitch, Thank you for your promptly reply. I would actually like to get a value out of the CheckBoxList as per attached. Thanks, James

Hi,
I think the only input box method that is limited to one unique choice is the ListBox. You could convert your list of values into a list of strings and then feed those to the ListBox, if there is a return you can then convert back to a float.

python Code:

import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs
 
vals=[0.5,0.7,1.0,1.5]
stringVals=[str(n) for n in vals]
msg="Choose effective length factor"
choice=rs.ListBox(stringVals,msg,"KFactor",stringVals[2])
if choice != None:
    KFactor=float(choice)
    print KFactor

The above could be embellished a bit with some more user-friendly words but you get the idea.
