You can do that with conditional attributes (see documentation):

 

Attributes = Author, Author Email, Icon, Category, System, Subject

Thanks for your quick reply! I just test what you suggested, even I test {1} Preset on edit Icon = icon1.gif, they both didn't work.

The example I gave you worked for me, I actually tested it. Please note that it contains

Options Category = ...

and not

Sorry for my carelessness. What you said is definitely right. I just wonder how can Icon and Catagory change simultaneously whatever which one be selected
first.

If you select a (different) category, the current icon setting simply gets overwritten, what ever it was before.

What I mean is that, when I select a catagory, the icon will change. If I change the icon, I need the catagory change too.

IOptions does not support conditional attributes.

I think the proper solution would be to remove the icon selection field from the input form:

Show Attributes Edit = Author, Author Email, Category, System, Subject

So, as far as I know that ROptions and IOptions doesn't support conditional attributes.

I think what you suggest is a nice idea. An alternative way is putting Category attribute before Icon attribute and adding a tooltip
to Icon attribute. However, I think your advice is better. Thanks!
