Set Up Participants: how many have been selected?

  * I have a workflow (Variance workflow) with a Set Up Participants activity.
  * What I want to be able to do is to make sure the task assignee selects one and only one participant.
  * I would like to have the checkboxes, the user is presented with and that are all selected by
    default, to be a select that would only allow one required selection.
  * However since a select is not possible (I think) I am attempting to create an optional condition
    for the "Complete" transition in the "Transitions" tab.


The code I have is returning all the available participants no matter if they have been selected or
not. I need a way to see if the participant (WTPrincipal) has been selected.

My optional condition code so far:

Have you tried using a WTUser variable in the workflow task that is
defaulted to blank, but is mandatory, visible, and resettable? It will
probably show up as a drop down. If you have 10,000s of users,
performance will likely be bad, but if you set up the resource pool to be
manageable, I would think it might work. This approach would NOT use the
Setup Participants task, but a general task or a review task with a
variable.
