#!EF #!N #!N Functional Details #!N #!N This module allows the 
user to interactively select  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   one #!EF item from a list. 
Through inputs to the module (outputs from other tools or values 
set in its configuration dialog box) the interactor can be "data 
driven." #!N #!N If the interactor is not data driven, its 
attributes (e.g.,  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   stringdata #!EF or  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   valuelist #!EF ) are 
taken from its  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Set Attributes... #!EF dialog box (accessed from 
the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Edit #!EF pull-down menu in the Control Panel). #!N 
#!N This interactor requires a list of strings and a list 
of values or strings that are then paired up one-to-one and 
used as selectable outputs. The inputs to Selector are used to 
generate both lists. If there are no inputs, the module uses 
the values in its  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Set Attributes... #!EF dialog box. #!N 
#!I0 #!N #!N #!I0 #!N  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*    #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   stringdata #!EF #!EF #!I50 
#!N controls the string values that appear as output in  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
name #!EF . It is required if the interactor is data 
driven. #!N #!N If the parameter value is: #!N #!I0 #!N 
 #!F-adobe-times-medium-r-normal--18*   #!N #!N #!I30 #!N o  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   a string list: #!EF 
the individual strings are used as potential outputs. #!N #!I30 #!N 
o  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   a group: #!EF the names of the group members 
(or member1, member2, ...) are used as possible output names. #!N 
#!I30 #!N o  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   a series group: #!EF the names are 
"position =  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   n #!EF ," (where  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   n #!EF is 
the series position of each series member). #!N #!I0 #!N #!EF 
#!N #!N #!N In every case, the items in the resulting 
string list are displayed in the list of selections in the 
corresponding Selector interactor. #!N #!I0 #!N  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*    #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   valuelist #!EF #!EF 
#!I50 #!N is a list of potential output values. #!N #!N 
If this parameter is a value or string list, these values 
are mapped one-to-one onto the string list that results from  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
stringdata #!EF input. #!N #!N If the interactor is data-driven, the 
parameter value can also be a single integer used to generate 
a list of integers beginning with that one. #!N #!N If 
the parameter is defaulted and the interactor is data-driven, the value 
list is a list of integers starting at 0 (zero). #!N 
#!I0 #!N  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*    #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   cull #!EF #!EF #!I50 #!N is specified 
only when the interactor is data-driven. It determines whether or not 
empty strings are culled from the string list that results from 
 #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   stringdata #!EF input. If set to 1, empty strings are 
removed. #!N #!I0 #!N  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*    #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   label #!EF #!EF #!I50 #!N 
is the global label of all instances of the corresponding interactor 
stand-in. An interactor instance's local label (set from the Control Panel) 
overrides a global label. If not specified, the global label is 
set by the user interface. #!I0 #!N #!N #!N #!N Example 
Visual Programs #!N #!N Many example visual programs use the Selector 
interactor. Example programs that use a data-driven Selector interactor are: #!CForestGreen
