Mulitple Condition Statement Architecture

[Phineas]

I have the following statement in a field.

I am using the statement to provide metadata to concatenate with another field to make a UniqueID. I have 20 different Titles to write into the condition.

Am I required to write out each portion of the condition for all 20, or is there a way to shorten the statement while including all 20 conditions.

     If(GalleryDropdown.SelectedTest.ClassTitles="Bus Driver","BD",
     If(GalleryDropdown.SelectedText.ClassTitles-"Cab Driver","CD",...

Please consider changing your Formula to the following:

Switch(GalleryDropdown.Selected.ClassTitles,
   "Bus Driver", "BD",
   "Cab Driver", "CD",
    ... 
)

If you are just trying to get an abbreviation of the titles (as it looks from the sample you provided) then you can do that even easier than typing a long switch statement.

Also your original formula had .SelectedText in it.  Avoid using that property as it has been deprecated. 

I hope this is helpful for you.
