Value combo box empty.

Is it possible to add an empty value in a drop-down list box. For example, when a user clicks on the drop-down list box, but then decided to do nothing to select?

Then you will probably need to add an option to deselect to combobox that when selected will reset selectedIndex-1.  By your previous question, you can add a white "" entry in the drop-down list, but it would probably be best to provide something that explains it as a choice.

I think that what is normally done in circumstances as an option, is that a checkbox control is used to first clarify that the option is desired, which in turn makes the ComboBox appear.  Deselection of the option would lead to the removal of the combobox control.

  • Combo box multiple values

    Hello world

    I would like to use a drop-down list box to send two different values for two entries for every combo box selection. For example if I select "Channel 1" form the drop-down list box, then the integer "1" and the string "1 x", which I can then send to the two separate terminals.

    I really have no idea how to do that, my one thought was to combine into a single value for the value of drop-down list box and then to cut the string and use it that way - but this seems awkward.

    See you soon!

    Instead of a combobox control, I'd probably use a ring.

  • Additional mouse click required to set other combo box values based on the current selection combo box

    I have an Acrobat PDF form where there are 8 combo boxes (not editable) which are related in a logical way, but have unique names and a list of unique values, with the exception of a default value that represents 'null' or 'none '.

    for example:

    The first 1 combo box value is "none" followed by the value A1, B1, C1, etc., and Combo box 2 the first value is 'none' followed of the values A2, B2, C2, etc...

    The combined list useful values for every combo boxes relate to the types of unique product for the user to select mode 'radio button '.

    When the user selects one of the 8 Combo boxes and performs one selection other than 'none', then the form must verify the 7 other combo boxes and when any current value is not equal to 'none', he has to change 'None '.

    The following script is currently enrolled in the properties of "Actions - Mouse Run - Up a Javascript" from one of the drop-down list boxes, others have similar scripts as well.

    (var cbox is the current combo box and var obox is for other drop-down list boxes when called).

    Cbox var = this.getField ("TagStyleStake");

    If (cbox.value! = "none")

    {

    obox var = this.getField ("TagStyleBasket");

    If (obox.value! = "none")

    {obox.value = 'none' ;}

    Obox = this.getField("TagStylePushon");

    If (obox.value! = "none")

    {obox.value = 'none' ;}

    Obox = this.getField("TagStyleHandle");

    If (obox.value! = "none")

    {obox.value = 'none' ;}

    Obox = this.getField("TagStyleHang");

    If (obox.value! = "none")

    {obox.value = 'none' ;}

    Obox = this.getField("TagStyleBlank");

    If (obox.value! = "none")

    {obox.value = 'none' ;}

    Obox = this.getField("TagStyleMolded");

    If (obox.value! = "none")

    {obox.value = 'none' ;}

    Obox = this.getField("TagStyleSignage");

    If (obox.value! = "none")

    {obox.value = 'none' ;}

    }

    The current problem is that, when a Combo is selected and one option other than the 'none' value is clicked, the other combo boxes do not include the 'None' value.

    To reset the other combo boxes requires another click on the option which has just been moved to the position selected in the drop-down list, but it seems reasonable that the drop-down list boxes should reset with the initial click the option in the drop-down list.

    I tried other properties (Format, validate, Calculate) but without success.

    What I'm missing here?

    The normal way to proceed is to define "value option selected to validate immediately" and to place the code in the event of the combo box button. And instead of the first two lines you have, you need to use something like:

    If (! event.willCommit & event.changeEx! == 'none') {}

    Your other code goes here

    }

    The changeEx property returns the value of exports, if any, for the selected item.

  • How to validate and save the values to a combo box and two text boxes in flex4 mxml application with as3

    helllo all,.

    I'm working on the application web flex4 with as3.

    I have a doubt, I've created a mxml it has two text boxes, except the button and a combo box that is has two option as a percentage and the amount.

    my needs are I gave here.

    need 1: when I choose option amount that two text boxes does not have to be editable.when I select text tat box two percentage option will be editable.

    need 2: when I select the percentage in combox option and two text boxes are empty, and then click the button Save-> I want to display warning msg

    need 3: when I select the option amount combox and the two boxes are emptu click the button Save-> I don't want any warning messages.

    How to validate it and how to write backup for this function.

    any suggession or extract code is welcome.

    Thanks in advance,

    B.Venkatesan

    Looks like you are trying to do too much at once. Try to hang the events correctly

    The close event of the comboBox can do something like this

    protected function toggleTextEditing(event:DropDownEvent):void

    {

    If (this.optionCmb.selectedItem.label is "Percentage")

    {

    This.Text1.editable = true;

    This.Text2.editable = true;

    }

    Else if (this.optionCmb.selectedItem.label == "Number")

    {

    This.Text1.editable = false;

    This.Text2.editable = false;

    }

    }

    The button's click event can do something like

    protected function save(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    If (this.optionCmb.selectedItem.label is "Percentage")

    {

    If (this.text1.text == "" & this.text2.text == "")

    {

    Alert.Show ("text is empty");

    return;

    }

    on the other

    {

    }

    }

    Else if (this.optionCmb.selectedItem.label == "Number")

    {

    }

    }

    If you can put in your entire code, maybe I can have a look to see if I can find something wrong with that.

  • How can I update by program table combo box control type def?

    I use LV 8.6.1 and I am trying to create a table control panel object in which the user can select an item to list box for each element of the array.  I also have to periodically update the list of values.  Currently, I have configured the drop-down list box (selection of Automation sequence - see attached) as a type non-stricte def so I can write news channels to the list values when I need to.  But I can't seem to find a way to get the table (list of batches - see rasthaus) fill the new value drop-down list box.

    Automation box refelcts the new string sequence selection that I add programmatically, but the combo boxes in the batch list table control do not have the new channel.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    I have attached the screenshot of the drop-down list and table controls.

    Thank you

    Dan

    I considered that mention strings and values have a property that cannot be stored in a typedef, but when I tried it out, it seemed that it was.  So I just did not comment on that.  Maybe the strings and values may be among the typedef, maybe not.  The values of the controls certainly cannot.  Strings and values can be in kind of a gray area.  But you can certainly expect changes to a control to automatically update another control, because they are typedefs.  You cannot change the typedefs during execution.

    Let's put another example that has nothing to do with the values.  You have a regular typedef of a digital.  It is saved with the text in red in scientific notation.  You place two instances of this on your drawing.  You can programmatically change each other colors or other digital formats.  A change does not affect the other.  If it's a strict typedef, you would be locked in the way in which it was saved and could not change it programmatically.

    Take a look at this.  If you cannot programmatically, to update your channel list and values for a single combobox (a scalar string) you will be able to put up-to-date for when the combobox control is the data type for a table.  Simply get a reference to the element of the array.  It does not use typedefs anyway.

  • Channels not defined in Combo Box Bug?

    I found a problem with the drop-down list box control:

    1. create a drop-down list box and deselect 'allow Undefined Strings.

    2. run the VI

    3. Select a list box item

    4. press on the BACKSPACE key to remove a few letters of the item

    5. click on on the front panel

    The combo box is filled with a string not set!

    Disabling the BACKSPACE key is not a valid work-around because the user may need this while typing the value.  Expected behavior of the control would be to restore the previous value.  Any comments?

    Yes.

How can I do that. Even I checked with the string value and the value [property] but still not able to do.

  • Selected pass contains a string indicator combo box when you press the Enter key

    How to pass selected contains a string indicator combo box when you press the enter keyboard key?

    Right now I use a button to send the command selected in the combox to string indicator.

    The photos shows a combo box with the button that I use to send to the indicator as example.

    After the user selects the text to pass, "send the cmd" button must be pressed to pass the string.

    I need to pass the selected string when the user press enter on the keyboard rather than press the button 'send cmd '.

    Kindly to you needing help.

    Hello

    You can use a structure of the event to capture keystrokes and filter, transmit only the drop-down list box "value of the indicator of channel when you press the return or enter key."

    Let me know it the joint allows an example (in LV 8.6).

    How?

    Thanks for the help, sorry if this question has been asked and especially sorry for terrible English.

    OK, I see now.

    So let's say that the first box is called Combo1 and the second Combo2. You can add this code in the validate the Combo1 event:

    var items = [];

    for (var i = 0; i)

    If (event.value! = event.target.getItemAt (i, false))

    Items.push (Event.Target.getItemAt (i, false));

    }

    getField("Combo2").setItems (items);

    If the user has not always need to interact with the text field, simply set the field read-only and use the following script in the custom text field calculation script:

    Script will count for the text field.

    Copy the value of the drop-down list box in this area

    Event.Value = getField("your_combo").value;

    Replace "your_combo" with the actual name of your combo box field.

  • Fill a combo box based on a different c/b to Acrobat 9 Pro

    Greetings,

    I am building a small form to work.  The form has a combo box that, based on the choice, fills a second.  In this case, the form allows patients planners choose a 'currentDiagnosis' (' Brain_Seizure', 'Brain_Tumor', etc.).  Based on the selection of a second combo Box is filled with codes CPT, "currentCPT" (for example '151.2', "152.2", etc.).

  • Combo box don't Worky

    I'm setting up a lesson on computer that uses a film of a parent to the overall interface and it loads each topic as a children's movie.

    Everything works as advertised, with the exception of the drop-down list box. I have correspondence issues in a topic, and when I run the subject on its own, it's all good. HOWEVER, when my parent movie load this topic as a child, the combo box STOPS WORKING.

    Specifically, when you hover over and click on one of the circuit breakers, he gets a clear (highlighted) green line around it, indicating that it indeed has the focus, but nothing happens when you click on it! The drop-down list does not appear, and no selection is possible. Yet once, it works fine when the swf file that contains the CBs is run on its own. It just does not work when this film is loaded in another.

    This description of the cries of a path problem. However, the only code that I associated these circuit breakers, is a function of change, whose only purpose is to gray on the selections of column B. I have NO CODE for the use of the CB... and the drop-down list of the values in the list are hard connected to CBS by using the window of parameters found in the properties panel when the CB is selected.

    All SWFs are compiled as Flash 7 with 2 ACEs. (But still once, there is no code in this topic that modifies the built-in feature of the BC).

    Someone at - he hear about this problem or can think of that would cause this?

    EDITED TO ADD:

    Although the CB is highlighted, the mouse cursor no IS NOT the CHANGE as it does for other mouse over events.

    It must be a ComboBox in the parent swf file. Drag a copy of the combobox component in the window of the component on the stage of the parent swf file. Remove from the scene. Publish.

  • Combo box and stored Variables

    Hi all

    I am currently working on an interactive flash application for an open company day celebration for children and adults. The app is nearly complete but I even if I need an arrow to the left in case the user change their mind on some selections. At the beginning of the application, the user is prompted for their title with a combo box of actionscripted, as well as their first and last name values.

    I have problems with when the steps of the user to that image from the drop-down list box does not show the value that has been shopping in title_cb. I had the values of fname and family name in the correct text entry areas, it's just the drop-down list box. I guess its the code that is bad, but don't know what else to try.

    I hope that someone will be able to help.

    The selectedItem is an object that contains the label and data properties. What you
    can do to bring the handset to a variable is iterate over each item, verification
    It's the label against your variable - if you find a match, you set the
    selectedIndex of the comboBox control. Here's a function I user:

    function setCombo (comboRef, searchLabel:String) {}
    var l = comboRef.length;
    for (var i = 0; i)< l;="" i++)="">
    If (comboRef.getItemAt (i) .label == searchLabel) {}
    comboRef.selectedIndex = i;
    break;
    }
    }
    }

    to use, you would just go: setCombo (title_cb, citlecb);
