How can i make that the step has a one kind of decision tree (responses can exclude another steps) instead of linearity in steps? i.e.: I have Machinery Mechanical or Hidraulic and Mechanical have some options diferents of Hidraulic

Well the only real way to do this is to structure the taxonomy to reduce in such a way that questions about certain branches of the taxonomy tree are never asked. In this way responses should exclude steps.

Can you show me an example of this situation, please? I really apreciate this :)

Thanks in advance.

Hmm I looked into this and I may have actually forgotten to build this feature! I don't see it in the code, but I have definitly thought of this.

Will have to get back to you on this, sorry!

Title: decision tree instead of linearity in steps » Early exit and step skipping
Version: 6.x-2.2 » 6.x-3.0-alpha1

I will implement two features in Finder Wizard that will somewhat address this
- an early exit when the pool of nodes is down to 1 or 0
- skipping a step where only one choice can be made

This has changed slightly, but you can see placeholders for the new settings in the new fw3 beta. They're just not implemented.

This issue isn't moving anywhere. It has been too hard to develop this functionality without ripping into Finder's guts.

Postponed pending plans for Finder, see #1211000: Drupal 7 Finder Wizard

I won't be developing this module any further in Drupal 6. When finder gets multistep functionality this will no doubt come up again, so I'll be conscious of it during development.
