dynamic - How to make the choice list for one PopupMenu depend on the choice in another


Code fragments below


buildDateChoices[datenums : {{_Integer, _Integer, _Integer} ..}] :=GroupBy[datenums, {First -> Rest, First -> Last}]

getMonthsX[y_Integer] := Keys@Lookup[datechoiceset, y, {1}];

getDaysX[y_Integer, m_Integer] := Lookup[datechoiceset, y, Range[12]][m];

testdatelist = Sort[{RandomInteger[{2008, 2015}, 25], RandomInteger[{1, 12}, 25], RandomInteger[{1, 30}, 25]}\[Transpose]];


datechoiceset = buildDateChoices[testdatelist]


<|2008-><|1->{15},3->{11},6->{15},10->{1},11->{9},12->{1}|>,2009-><|1->{24},6->{25},7->{29},11->{25}|>,2010-><|2->{13},3->{19},4->{29},6->{3},7->{26,27,29},9->{23},10->{13},11->{15}|>,2011-><|2->{14},3->{17}|>,2012-><|1->{8},4->{30},6->{24},9->{5},10->{15},12->{15}|>,2013-><|11->{8}|>,2014-><|1->{5,17},2->{26},4->{21},6->{19},7->{5,13},9->{21},10->{14}|>,2015-><|2->{5},5->{19,29},10->{5,29},11->{15},12->{28}|>|>



The individual getMonthsX, getDayX function work. But the code below does not.


DialogInput[DynamicModule[{cyear, cmonth, cday, yearlist},  
yearlist = Keys@datechoiceset;
getMonths[y_Integer] := Keys@Lookup[datechoiceset, y, {1}];
getDays[y_Integer, m_Integer] := Lookup[Lookup[datechoiceset, y, Range[12]], m, Range[30]];

Column[{TextCell[Style["Choose a File Date ", Blue, Bold, 16]],
TextCell[" "],
Row[{"Year: ", PopupMenu[Dynamic[cyear], yearlist], " Month: ",
PopupMenu[Dynamic[cmonth], Dynamic@getMonths[cyear]]," Day: ",
PopupMenu[Dynamic[cday], Dynamic@getDays[cyear, cmonth]]}],TextCell[" "],
Row[{Button[" Select ", DialogReturn[{cyear, cmonth, cday}]], " ",
CancelButton[]}]
}]]]

I have looked at several related examples on Stack Exchange including Date Picker, I have also tried using the second argument of Dynamic to set the lists, without success. Any help you could provide would be welcome.




Answer



A simple example of one popup depending on the selection of another:


DynamicModule[{x, y, list},

{PopupMenu[
Dynamic[x, (x = #;
list = Switch[#, "A", {1, 2, 3}, "B", {4, 5, 6},
"C", {7, 8, 9}]; y = First[list]) &], {"A", "B", "C"}],

Dynamic[PopupMenu[Dynamic[y], list], TrackedSymbols :> {list}]}

]

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

I have data in format data = {{a1, a2}, {b1, b2}, {c1, c2}, {d1, d2}} Tableform: I want to thread it to : tdata = {{{a1, b1}, {a2, b2}}, {{a1, c1}, {a2, c2}}, {{a1, d1}, {a2, d2}}} Tableform: And I would like to do better then pseudofunction[n_] := Transpose[{data2[[1]], data2[[n]]}]; SetAttributes[pseudofunction, Listable]; Range[2, 4] // pseudofunction Here is my benchmark data, where data3 is normal sample of real data. data3 = Drop[ExcelWorkBook[[Column1 ;; Column4]], None, 1]; data2 = {a #, b #, c #, d #} & /@ Range[1, 10^5]; data = RandomReal[{0, 1}, {10^6, 4}]; Here is my benchmark code kptnw[list_] := Transpose[{Table[First@#, {Length@# - 1}], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list kptnw2[list_] := Transpose[{ConstantArray[First@#, Length@# - 1], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list OleksandrR[list_] := Flatten[Outer[List, List@First[list], Rest[list], 1], {{2}, {1, 4}}] paradox2[list_] := Partition[Riffle[list[[1]], #], 2] & /@ Drop[list, 1] RM[list_] := FoldList[Transpose[{First@li...

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...
