Create sections of a protocol that can be chosen by "Drop-down menu"

[will]

Eg, you have 3 possible routines at a certain point in the protocol. You want to be able to chose between them, probably by using a drop-down menu.

Maybe need to define the separate protocols elsewhere, store them somewhere?

Since the "protocol" should have all options, but the "experiment" should have only 1.

Thinking about MAGE-TAB with their "Protocol Type" attribute. Usually, if you are switching between multiple protocols, they will have the same type (eg Transfection). But a MAGE-TAB "protocol" maps to a single Field in OMERO.editor. So the granularity of this is not quite right for this problem, since MAGE-TAB doesn't refer to one protocol from another. But a "protocol" file could have several "Transfection" fields (with child fields) and then when this becomes an "experiment" file, it could allow you to choose between them? May eventually want to have the workflow of protocols defined separately from the protocol fields (like MAGE-TAB)?

Talked to David in AIL lab. Although he didn't specifically request this feature, he wanted to "import" antibody details into an experiment file by choosing from a list of antibodies. So, you'd need a series of "Antibody" instance files (or one file describing several antibodies) and be able to choose the antibody from a drop-down list, which would import (by copying) the details /fields from the source file.
