Dynamic Fixed List
Is there a way to change the choices presented by one drop down list
custom property by what is selected by a second fixed list custom property? Programmatically or otherwise? For example if one fixed list contains: Dog; Cat If Dog is selected then the breed list property will narrow down to: Beagle, Collie, etc If Cat is selected then the breed list property will narrow down to: Siamese, etc Thanks

use the shapesheet cell for all the custom proprities. Define a user cell as
a swtich. AKA something like if dog then switch=1 else switch=2. Then in the customer proprity section in the invisbile cell....have If switch=1, false, else true. I have done this actually 4 tiers down...works fine. Its a great way to get around the problem of only 1 panel for custom properties presented and the errata about not handling too many custom properties.
