You state that you have used logical functoids - anyway, that's the

Put an exists on all three source-elements. Then if the third
exists-functoid is true, use a value mappening functoid to get the
right output. Else, if the second exists-functoid i strue AND the
third wasn't, use another value mappening functoid to get the correct
output. Lastly, do the same; If the first exists-functoid is true AND
the second wasn't AND the third wasn't, then use a third value
mappeningfunctoid to get the correct output. It should be doable.

are you saying to use the '?' in combination with the
right arrow functoids, or to write a custom script to do
the 'else' conditions? Or some combination of the two?

Well, I really don't know how to write it other ways than I have
described in my previous posting;

No custom scripts. The "else"-conditions are created by letting the
output of a logical-functoid go into an equals-functoid that has
"false" as the second parameter.
