choose (Choose Element)

The choose element wraps if/else blocks into a choose block.

[Example: Consider the following example of a choose element in a DrawingML diagram:

<choose name="Name1">
<if name="Name2" func="var" arg="dir" op="equ" val="norm">
<alg type="snake">
<param type="grDir" val="tL"/>
<param type="flowDir" val="row"/>
<param type="contDir" val="sameDir"/>
<param type="off" val="ctr"/>
</alg>
</if>
<else name="Name3">
<alg type="snake">
<param type="grDir" val="tR"/>
<param type="flowDir" val="row"/>
<param type="contDir" val="sameDir"/>
<param type="off" val="ctr"/>
</alg>
</else>
</choose>

In this example, a choose element is used to define two different sets of parameters associated with a snake algorithm depending upon the direction in which the user wants the algorithm to flow (RTL or ). end example]
