How can I show/hide panels dynamically with tokens?

Hi,

I have 3 options to choose from and 3 panels to show/hide depending on the option chosen.
I should be able to choose 1 panel at a time or 2 panels or all the 3 panels
If i use three dropdowns i am able to show or hide as per the above requirement since i have unique token names there its easy to reference in table depends = token.
But how do i achieve this with single checkbox where i get all the 3 options to choose from or radio button or multiselect. As in these cases i have a single token name is there any option i can refer the value of the token something like table depends=token name=A

Thanks

You can use the "change" and "condition" on your checkbox XML code to choose with panels to show, but this have a problem for checkbox and multiselect, that is the order the user select the options will change the value of your token.

Using a Radio button is easier, but you will have to write all the options, that in your case are 7 options ( panel1, panel2, panel3, panel 1 and 2, panel1 and 3, panel2 and 3, all panels)

Considering 3 panels with depends on tokens $p1$, $p2$, $p3$, you can create the radio button and for each one use the code to set\unset the token or create the checkbox\multiselect and map all the possible combinations of values.

For 3 panels is easy, but if the number os panels increase, this can be problematic.

Code for the Radio buttons :

    <input type="radio" token="radio">
      <label>Radio</label>
      <choice value="p1">p1</choice>
      <choice value="p2">p2</choice>
      <choice value="p3">p3</choice>
      <choice value="p1 p2">p1 and p2</choice>
      <choice value="p1 p3">p1 and p3</choice>
      <choice value="p2 p3">p2 and p3</choice>
      <choice value="p1 p2 p3">All</choice>

Code for the Checkbox :

    <input type="checkbox" token="checkbox">
      <label>Painel:</label>
      <choice value="p1">Panel1</choice>
      <choice value="p2">Panel2</choice>
      <choice value="p3">Panel3</choice>
      <prefix/>
      <suffix/>
      <valueSuffix></valueSuffix>

Code for the change and set\unset :

      <change>
        <condition match="$checkbox$==&quot;&quot;">
          <unset token="p1"></unset>
          <unset token="p2"></unset>
          <unset token="p3"></unset>
        </condition>
        <condition match="$checkbox$==&quot;p1&quot;">
          <set token="p1">1</set>
          <unset token="p2"></unset>
          <unset token="p3"></unset>
        </condition>
        <condition match="$checkbox$==&quot;p2&quot;">
          <set token="p2">1</set>
          <unset token="p1"></unset>
          <unset token="p3"></unset>
        </condition>
        <condition match="$checkbox$==&quot;p3&quot;">
          <set token="p3">1</set>
          <unset token="p1"></unset>
          <unset token="p2"></unset>
        </condition>
        <condition match="$checkbox$==&quot;p1 p2&quot; OR $checkbox$==&quot;p2 p1&quot;">
          <set token="p1">1</set>
          <set token="p2">1</set>
          <unset token="p3"></unset>
        </condition>
        <condition match="$checkbox$==&quot;p1 p3&quot; OR $checkbox$==&quot;p3 p1&quot;">
          <set token="p1">1</set>
          <set token="p3">1</set>
          <unset token="p2"></unset>
        </condition>
        <condition match="$checkbox$==&quot;p2 p3&quot; OR $checkbox$==&quot;p3 p2&quot;">
          <set token="p2">1</set>
          <set token="p3">1</set>
          <unset token="p1"></unset>
        </condition>
        <condition match="$checkbox$==&quot;p1 p2 p3&quot; OR $checkbox$==&quot;p1 p3 p2&quot; OR $checkbox$==&quot;p2 p1 p3&quot; OR $checkbox$==&quot;p2 p3 p1&quot; OR $checkbox$==&quot;p3 p1 p2&quot; OR $checkbox$==&quot;p3 p2 p1&quot;">
          <set token="p1">1</set>
          <set token="p2">1</set>
          <set token="p3">1</set>
        </condition>
      </change>

I have below sample app. This is to hide or show a pane. This is not working. Can anyone help to find the problem?
I used sample code from here to test my usecase.
http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.3.3/Viz/PanelreferenceforSimplifiedXML#condition_.28in...

Use tokens with conditional input choices

<input type="dropdown" token="period_tok">
  <label>Select a time range</label>
  <choice value="-24h@h">Last 24 Hours</choice>
  <choice value="-7d@h">Last 7 Days</choice>
  <choice value="-30d@h">Last 30 Days</choice>
  <default>-24h@h</default>
  <!-- set condition based on the label defined by <choice> -->
  <!-- Within each condition, specify a custom label for display -->
  <!-- Capture the selected value in the token, earliest_tok -->
  <change>
    <condition>
      <unset token="show_panel_prg_select"></unset>
    </condition>
    <condition label="Last 24 Hours">
      <set token="date_label">Yesterday</set>
      <set token="earliest_tok">$value$</set>
      <set token="show_panel_prg_select">1</set>
    </condition>
    <condition label="Last 7 Days">
      <set token="date_label">Last week</set>
      <set token="earliest_tok">$value$</set>
    </condition>
    <condition label="Last 30 Days">
      <set token="date_label">Last month</set>
      <set token="earliest_tok">$value$</set>
    </condition>
  </change>
</input>



  <title>Conditional Inputs</title>
  <chart>
    <!-- Display selected label in the title -->
    <title>$date_label$</title>
    <search>
      <query>index = _internal | timechart count by sourcetype</query>
      <!-- use the value of earliest_tok -->
      <!-- to set the time range         -->
      <earliest>$earliest_tok$</earliest>
      <latest>now</latest>
    </search>
    <option name="charting.axisY.scale">log</option>
    <option name="charting.axisTitleX.text">Time periods</option>
    <option name="charting.axisTitleY.text">Events</option>
  </chart>
</panel>


 <panel depends="$show_panel_prg_select$">
  <table>
    <search>
     <query>index = _internal | timechart count by sourcetype</query>
      <earliest>$earliest_tok$</earliest>
      <latest>now</latest>
    </search>
    <option name="count">100</option>
    <option name="dataOverlayMode">none</option>
    <option name="drilldown">none</option>
    <option name="percentagesRow">false</option>
    <option name="rowNumbers">false</option>
    <option name="totalsRow">false</option>
    <option name="wrap">true</option>
  </table>
</panel>
