Hi,
I need help to decide whats the best app lodgic to use to achieve the following

I have a collapsible block in a grid.
I want to map a collection to the grid and the components in the block

2 of the columns in the collection are strings and need to be mapped to 2 labels

the other component in the collapsible block is a selectmenu
for which I have a size for the label of the selectmenu and price for the value

do I need to arrange label and price for selectmenu as array like this

size and price array

["{size=Eight Inch, price=2.50}","{size=Ten Inch, price=3.50}","{size=Ten Inch Stuffed Crust, price=5.00}","{size=Twelve Inch, price=4.50}","{size=Twelve Inch Stuffed Crust, price=6.50}","{size=Fourteen Inch, price=6.00}","{size=Fourteen Inch, price=8.00}"]

or do I heed 2 arrays, 1 for size and 1 for price, like this

["Eight Inch","Ten Inch","Ten Inch Stuffed Crust","Twelve Inch","Twelve Inch Stuffed Crust","Fourteen Inch","Fourteen Inch Stuffed Crust"]

["2.50","3.50","5.00","4.50","6.50","6.00","8.50"]

this is screenshot of block

this is the selectmenu hand coded to show you the required result

And this data will be coming from a service..?

thats what I was hoping to Max, as they have more than 1 outlet and it would make it easier to compile for each shop.

You could try to return a collection of pizza's and then it will have another collection inside that would be the size.

Not sure what you mean Max,
do you have an example?
thanks

I do have a service and it returning the labels fine i.e pizza name and description, see screenshots.
any array I have tried with selectmenu either returns the whole array to the selectmenu label

You would need to make the size an array.

Max,
do you mean add $ under "size" and add array
Eight Inch
Ten Inch
Ten Inch Stuffed Crust

and them map the $ to where?
I really need an example for this Max, see what you can do

Hello! It's better to use data this way pre["{size=Eight Inch, price=2.50}","{size=Ten Inch, price=3.50}","{size=Ten Inch Stuffed Crust, price=5.00}","{size=Twelve Inch, price=4.50}","{size=Twelve Inch Stuffed Crust, price=6.50}","{size=Fourteen Inch, price=6.00}","{size=Fourteen Inch, price=8.00}"] /pre and parse them as we suggested you here https://getsatisfaction.com/apperyio/...

Hi Marina,
I think this is different, as I have the array as you suggested in my collection, I am trying to populate the selectmenu with a get from database, here are screenshots,

Max mentioned "You would need to make the size an array"
but dont know what he nmeans.

Please try the same way as suggested with a link above.
