Text in ComboBox

Developer Tools ScreenMaker

Hello,

I need to put text from rapid variable (string) to list of members in Combo box. How can I do that? When I connect item with controller variable I get only text from appearance not from string variable.

Thank you for support. BR Jiri.

Hi Jiri,

Is the rapid defined as an array?

MODULE MainModule
PERS string stringVar{5}:=[“uno”,“dos”,“tres”,“cuatro”,“cinco”];
PROC main()

ENDPROC
ENDMODULE

Hello, no, when it´s defined as array, then everything is ok and I can see text defined in variable. But when It´s only one PERS string… than I can see only text field defined in combo box settings.

Hi Jiri,

I am not sure if I am understanding your real need. Can you put a sample RAPID code?

The ComboBox allows you to list values, either by binding the collection of the ComboBox to a RAPID array, or by adding one item at a time (fixed values or individual RAPID data). In both cases, the value of the RAPID data (single or the array) will be presented in the UI.

Hello, as you can see, when I add variable to combo box via add/remove items, I get only default text in combo box list.

Hi Jiri,

I was able to reproduce this bug. I also report this to our support team.

Thanks for your explanation. My guess is that you will need a workaround in the short term while this is fixed (either put them in an array, or do some extra coding in C#)

Thanks again for your feedback

Hello, I use array but I must change many things in rapid code.

Thank you for support.
