Problems with the using of the DropDownByKey

Question

Hello Experts,
I've just created a Tab where Data can Edit.
It looks like a formular > see the following lines:
Activity_1---->DropdownMenu--->InputField---->RadioButton
Activity_2---->DropdownMenu--->InputField---->RadioButton
I've create a Context for the DropdownMenu filled with "Symple Types"
The DropDownByKey includes three things to choose (e.g. allowed, not allowed, no idea).
Before choosing one of them I want the InputField and the RadioButtons Disabled. When I choose allowed, I want the InputField and the RadioButton get Enable.
I hope for help.
Thanks a lot
Best regards

Hi,
As mentioned by you,you have created a simple type to bind it to dropdown key.So for instance you created simple type with following enumeration:
Value                                      Description
a. AL                                          Allowed
b. NA                                         Not Allowed
c. NI                                          NoIdea
To fullfill your requirement,create a boolean context and bind it to your input field and  radio button.
Now Go to your layout of dropdown by key and you will find a event on Select.Create a event for it and inside that event write the following piece of code..
In the Action OnActionSelectDropDown()
String selectedKey = wdContext.current<Node>Element().get<AttrBindedtoDD>;
if(selectedKey .equalsIgnorecase("AL"))
     // Make the boolean context as true
else{
// Make the boolean context as false
Hope this will resolve your problem.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
