Hi all, I am wondering if it's possible to make a script tool parameter showing or hiding depending on other parameter's value by user's inputing through coding in Validation or some other trick?
Thank you Strauch, I read the subject you posted and am working with ModelBuilder to see whether it can do.
I don't know if this will work, but if you choose a parameter type of "Derived" it will not show, but the user also doesn't have an option to choose either. But maybe you can work with that to get what you need.

I don't think there's that much control over the script tool interface. I don't have a lot of experience with it though, maybe someone else knows for sure.
Thank you Terhune. It almost solve my problem, but it will be better if parameters invisible instead unselectable, or is it possible to popup another script parameters panel waiting for user's interactive inputs as an alternative?
It's part of the validation.

A parameter's value property returns an object, unless the parameter isn't populated, in which case the value returns None. To safeguard against a parameter not being populated, use a if check prior to using its value.The code snippet below tests whether the value is equal to the string "Get Spatial Weights From File". This test works because the parameter data type is a string.
