Item Index

[Zach_Jake]

I am so confused why this doesn’t work -

[Japhy]

try the member index component, item index is looks for a match of a different sort (identical in the memory vs value)

Here is David’s explanation from an old thread…

"the difference between [Member Index] and [Item Index] is basically that Member Index compares values, whereas Item Index compares memory addresses.

So why would you ever need Item Index you ask? Because Member Index can only handle simple data types (numbers, text, points etc.) and also because you might need very specific variable mapping which is not possible when a list contains the same value more than once.

But all in all you will (almost) never need Item Index."

Wouldn’t this be much easier with working code instead of images?
