Use associative array to store your different lists, create expressions/functions to create a collector for checkboxes and ifboxes.
This doesn't use modal window, as it is much easier to develop when not using one as you can easily test different gets and such from the script editor

aa_tech = Associative Array();
aa_tech["Tech1"] = Associative Array(stages_tech1, stages_tech1_text);

@jthi Thanks. Running your script starts off by showing all TestStages under TestStage by default (pasted below) and then once a Tech is selected, it behaves as needed.
Could the script be modified to not show nothing first under TestStage selection text and then once the Tech is selected, show the appropriate/available TestStages?
This is the place where you set those values first time
also if you want it to be always empty when no selections are done you will also have to make small modification to expr_update_cb
Initialize Check Box with empty list not cb_values (they are different things).
Within the expression this is the part you have to consider (and understand)
Why is if statement used here? What would happen if we go to else? What would happen if we don't have it, we have an empty list and go to Filter Each?
