Hello,

I cannot seem to get my branch scripts to abort if they are not selected from a dropdown menu. This is my starting script 

<parameters>
/ id = 0
</parameters>

<values>

</values>

<batch select>

</dropdown>

And, in <expt> for each script, I have /onexptbegin = [ if(parameters.id != e.g.#) script.abort(false); values.id_selected = e.g.# ;

The problem is that no matter which value I select from the dropdown, all the scripts are run in sequence. Any help would be so much appreciated!

I attached a zip folder (i believe).

I attached a zip folder (i believe).

Actually attach the ZIP, please. It's not there.

Attached is a set of working example scripts. They make use of the first three ID #s: Script A will be run for ID #1, script B for ID #2, script C for ID #3.

The batch script and dropdown script code is unchanged, you may refer to scripts A to C for the proper /onexptbegin logic (not included in your post); note that the ID parameter ought to be defined in those scripts, otherwise they will have no access to the parameter value set by the dropdown / selection script.

Thanks!! That helps. Sorry about the ZIP. On multiple occasions, Inquisit always tells me my upload space is full even when there is nothing in it.
