index variable inside object

[ToledoNicola]

now you can create only global index variables, it would be nice to be able to select properties within an object as index variables, this is convenient when you start to have many lists and to organize I prefer to have everything grouped within objects

@ToledoNicola quick question, are you using the same index variable for all lists, or a unique index variable for each list?
If you do the latter, what's the reason for it?

[ToledoNicola]

in my case I have forms in different pages, in each form I have 4 dynamic selects that take the options from the db, so for each dynamic select I create a variable index, so 4 variable indexes but I preferred to create the variable index inside an object that takes care of managing the state of the form instead of having them all global, can I always use the same variable index for different lists?

[alexiglesias93]

Yes, you can use the same index variable for multiple lists. I think we should make it clearer in the documentation 🤔

The only scenario where you need multiple index variables is when nesting lists, so you can use each variable to access the corresponding list level's data.

So if you have 4 different lists, non-nested, they all can use the same index variable:

List 1 - v.index
List 2 - v.index
List 3 - v.index
List 4 - v.index

If you have nested lists, then you want to use different index variables for each level:

List 1 - v.i
  Sublist 1 - v.j
  Sublist 2 - v.j
    Subsublist 1 - v.k

ahh ok I didn't understand that it was for levels, if it's always the same level I can always use the same variable, I'll try, thanks
