how to use Numbers pop up menu with RegEx to choose from a calculated string of choices delineated by separators?

With iPad Numbers, Is it possible to use pop up menu with RegEx?

in a cell containing calculated outputs separated by semicolons, how have a user control (pop-up menus or sliders ) to select which output to use ?

my wish using pop-up menu with RegEx on a string containing delineated outputs shown below.


iPad mini (6th generation)

I have absolutely no idea what you mean. Your screenshot shows a popup menu and a cell with the same items separated by semicolons. Where does REGEX come into this?


You can use the popup as part of the regular expression in REGEX or REGEX.EXTRACT, if that is what you are asking. You would use it as a string, just like any other string, in the formula that creates the regular expression. But I do not understand what you are asking so it is difficult to give an answer.
