Get Selected Outline Box Values

[#1]

I have a window with a hierarchy of outline boxes.  I would like the user to select some boxes, and then retrieve the hierarchy with JSL.  Is this possible?  I only have 1 layer in my example hierarchy.  Ideally, this will work for a many-layered hierarchy.

but ultimately I would like several layers.

I am using JMP 18.1.2.

Names Default To Here( 1 );

cary = Associative Array();
cary["state"] = "NC";
cary["population"] = 116234;
cary["weather"] = "cloudy";
cary["population"] += 10;
cary["weather"] = "sunny";
cary["high schools"] = {"Cary", "Green Hope", "Panther Creek"};

Print( cary );

add_outline = Function( {target, input},
	{Default Local},
	Try(
		If( Type( input ) == "Associative Array",
			For Each( {key, index}, input << Get Keys,
				target << Append( Outline Box( key ) );
				add_outline( target[key], input[key] );
			)
		,
			target << Append( Text Box( input ) )
		)
	,
		target << Append( Text Box( "null" ) )
	)
);

win = New Window( "Cary Window" );
add_outline( win, cary );

// User will select some values.

win << Get Selected; // How to get selected values?

Use XPath. First select some value(s)

Then use << Get XML

win << get xml

Find the selected element from log to see how you could access it

Then write an XPath query and use it with << XPath. This example might not be what you are looking for as it looks for all selected elements

win << XPath("//*[@selected = 'true']")
