Question

can choosing a name in a drop down list trigger certain layers to turn on and certain other layers to turn off?

I would like to select a sub contractor's name and have all of his info show up in a window on the page. All of the other subs have a info page in the same space on the page on different layers, named after that sub.

Is there a script that will cause the plumber's layer to show when i choose his company in the drop down window and not the other 15 subs that all inhabit the same space on the page?

Also, this is for Bluebeam. Since Bluebeam doesn't have a thriving forum that I know of, I thought I'd try here since I believe it would be the same script....

You can use the various form actions. Most likely the one you would need to use would be the custom keystroke along with the "Commit value immediately" property. The changeEx property for the event will provide the export value for the option. If you do not specify an optional export value then it is the option.

Thank you gkaiseril, but I know very little about creating forms.

Can you expand on the statement below?
