TCArknight, here's the wiki page about dynamic tables: http://hlkitwiki.wolflair.com/index....Element_(Data)

The answer you're looking for is in the section labeled "headerpick"

Just ran into this problem myself. Add this attribute:

headerpick="some_thing"

to the dynamic_table element.

[Sorry. Posted this before I refreshed the thread].

I appreciate the help! That's now working.

I don't have the code in front of me as I'm at work, but I'm running into an issue for displaying the gadget output.

I have a foreach loop stepping through each gadget on the hero. I'm able to output the name field with no issue. However, when I try to use another foreach loop to step through the children on the gadget, I get an error message. Is there a trick to using nested foreach loops in this kind of case? Or would it be better to count the number of children and then do a simple for loop using gizmo.child to step through each on and get the name values of the children traits?

I'll need to see the code, and you'll need to right-click and copy the error message, so that you can paste it here. What you've described is too vague to figure out what's going on.

Ok, thanks. :) I'll post it this evening when I get off work...

I get this error:

Hero Lab was forced to stop compilation after the following errors were detected:

Syntax error in script for Procedure 'sbgadgets' on line 17
-> Script reference is invalid under the circumstances

The code in red is where I am trying to get to the bootstrapped children on the gadget.

Code:

<procedure id="sbgadgets" scripttype="synthesize"><![CDATA[



    var ismore as number

    var i as number

    var gadgetid as string

    

    append @boldon & "Gadgets: " & @boldoff & @newline

    

    ~output the details of all resources

    ismore = 0

    foreach pick in hero where "HasGadget.?"

      ismore = 1

      gadgetid = "thingid." & eachpick.idstring

      

      append @indent & eachpick.field[name].text

      

      foreach bootstrap in pick where "component.Ability"

        notify eachthing.idstring

        nexteach 

         

      if (ismore = 0) then

        append @indent & "-none-" & @newline

        endif

        

      append @newline

      nexteach

    

    ~if we have no resources, output that fact

    if (ismore = 0) then

      append @indent & "-none-" & @newline

      endif

    ]]></procedure>

Code:

 

foreach bootstrap in eachpick.gizmo where "component.Ability"

  notify eachpick.idstring

  nexteach

I still get an error:

I need to see line 17, please - that's the line it says this error is on.

Ok, I cleaned the procedure up a bit, and this error is on a new line.

Highlighted is line 9.

Code:

      ismore = 1

      append @indent & eachpick.field[name].text & "(" & gadgetid & ")"

      

          

      foreach bootstrap in eachpick.gizmo where "component.Ability"

        notify eachpick.idstring

Looking at the wiki, it looks like 'foreach bootstrap' uses eachthing. IfI try this:

Code:

notify eachthing.idstring

I get this:
