Dynamic block array

[ripuz]

Hi,

 

I´m trying to make a dynamic "AND/OR" block for some logic diagrams.

I want the block to be dynamic in two ways:

 

1. Number of inputs

2. Each individual input should have the option: inverted (circle) or not inverted (straight line).

 

I can´t manage to get this to work and as far as I have googled it might even be impossible... but maybe someone here have a clever mind to make this work.

 

 

BR,

you can have multiple visibility states in 1 dynamic block. you use lookup tables to "fake" it. Its a long winded approach and you need all options ready before you start to build the table. as it is really hard to add new visibility states in later

 

but it works.

attached is a block i created with multiple visibility stated.

Probably not the right way but if you make a circle with radius 0.0000001 it will exist but you will not see it like wise a line that is 0.000001 long.

Hi guys, and thanks for answering!

 

MonkeyTurnip, this solution is the only one I managed to find on my own that was in the right direction but I don´t think it will do in this case because every state has to be in the block from start and then it´s not dynamic. And I don´t think it´s for any use when you have more than a few inputs because if I want like max 10 inputs that would be 2^10 = 1024 states which is unmanageable.

 

 

BIGAL, How do you mean it should work, use some actions to change the properties of the line and circle? I think there will still be a problem with the invert/non invert to be individual.

Is it possible to make the array action to create new instances of actions? Otherwise the "switch" for invert/non invert (circle / line) will affect all of the array.
