calculated dimension help

[#1]

Would it be possible for me to use a value from a text object to a calculated dimension?

like if in my text object i have =if(osuser()='me',2,1)

and in my calculated dimension i will just like call the object like if(textobject = 2,[Drill],[Cyclic])

is this kinda possible?

help would be much apreciated.

Hello.

No, you can't get values from text object. but you can use a variable. For example:

1) create a variable vUser with value: =if(osuser()='me',2,1)

2) use this variable in calculated dimension: if($(vUser) = 2,[Drill],[Cyclic])
