Hi!
I have a tool with three possible types of input. A flag is set to either 'bed', 'resource' or 'file' for the two inputs. I've noticed that the conditional variables are not available on the command line, so is there some other way of setting these flags?
So far, the UI handles the 3 possible input types nicely, but I'd like to set the format1 and format2 flags directly from the conditional. It seems that the conditional parameters aren't seen by cheetah. I also tried using 'hidden' parameters, but those seem to be for totally different uses.
# USAGE:
# python enrichment_pairwise.py myfile.bed geneExons --format1=bed --format2=resource --genome_resource=hg18 --output_file=overlap.txt
Trying to run this in galaxy gives:

My tool's XML file looks like:
