Button Boxes - Steps into different .jsl
// First Option [Of course the doSomethingElse is accomplished by an Include(C:\doSomethingElse.jsl)
win = New Window( "DataBase",
// <<Modal,
<<ReturnResult, // ensures that you get the same result as with Dialog
V List Box(
V List Box(
Text Box( "Database" ),
Line Up Box(
NCol( 1 ),
Panel Box(" Lot Number ", LotListBox ), // pull in list of lots from database
Panel Box( "Test Type",
Button Box( "S_PARAMS", doSelection_SS),
Button Box( "NF", doSelection_NF),
Button Box( "DC_DATA", doSelection_DC),
Button Box( "TIMING", doSelection_TIME),
Button Box( "BITREAD", doSelection_BIT),
Button Box( "GCA_I", doSelection_GCA),
)
)
),
H List Box(
Align( Right ),
Spacer Box(),
Button Box( "Exit", win << Close Window),

After looking through the community boards i found how to use botton boxes when creating windows. Unlike using Check Box() or Radio Box() that require clicking through different selection and the hitting 'OK' to excute a varitey of If() statements. I then learned that you have to not use << Modal in order to get the 'OK and 'Cancel' button but insteat using 'Exit' which just exits the window. I find this to be more user friendly when it comes to others executing a wide variety of options. The button boxes then allow you to use different icons for each button.
Now to my problem:
Is there a way to do a multiple of .jsl (which envolves the Include() function)? Can you introduce If() statements inside these button box windows?
Each doSomethingElse steps into another window with a different set of button boxes
Thanks

Re: Button Boxes - Steps into different .jsl
Yes. In the example, the two statements are separated by a semicolon. Each statement is an expression that is evaluated. I imagine
doSelection_SS
does something that selects some data and
doSomethingElse
processes the selected data.

Re: Button Boxes - Steps into different .jsl
ButtonBox has one script that runs when the button is pressed. I think the 3rd argument is being quietly ignored:
Button Box( "S_PARAMS", doSelection_SS, doSomethingElse)
You probably want this
Button Box( "S_PARAMS", if( doSelection_SS, doSomethingElse) )
or (semicolon, not comma)
Button Box( "S_PARAMS", doSelection_SS; doSomethingElse)
both of which have only two arguments, separated by a comma, for the ButtonBox function.

Re: Button Boxes - Steps into different .jsl
Thank you for the reply..
Question: If i use the 3rd option that would execute both subscripts and not treat it like an IF() statement?
