Is it possible to use a % symbol in a choice type parameter?
e.g. if i wanted the parameter options to be %y%m%d or %d/%m/%Y

I cicrumvent the problem by using choice with alias.
The alias i then use for further control.

Hi @egomm,
Unfortunately the GUI for Choice parameters is not properly handling that character as it is used as the separator between different choice values so currently setting %Y%m%d will become three choices: Y, m and d. I have raised issue FMEDESKTOP-9147 to request this is fixed.
As a workaround I would suggest using a different symbol and then using a ParameterFetcher > StringReplacer in your translation to rectify this.
