Combo box not displaying correctly

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi guys,

 

a few days a go i noticed that my comboboxes are not displaying the first and second name (as first value) correctly. Instead of displaying the second value below the first, they are one after the other. Below a snippet from the combobox. "E1" is the first name and "Dono de Obra" is the second name, and yes the combobox is defined as double on properties ^^.

 

Can you help me out? Does any one else has this problem.

    Hi again,

     

    Didn´t work 😞 

    This could be a PowerApps error after an update. Everything worked fine and the syntax is the correct one. Can you test on your side @Nogueira1306 ?

    I'm having the same issue when using the combobox with the double value.

     

    It is supposed to show like this.

    Remove-Picture-From-People-Picker-in-power-apps.png

     

    And now is showing everything in one line, like "PreeetuSahyPreeti@xxxx.onmicrosoft.com".

     

    This seem to be an issue with Power Apps because this was working last week.

    Any update on this issue?  I can confirm, I'm having the same issues.  It worked fine up until a week ago or so.  I've got two powerapps that we've been developing for 2+ Years, some combo boxes we haven't touched in over a year and now display wrong and they used to work.  I can say for 100% that this has to be due to a powerapps release.

    Hey @bcampbell13 

    Yes, it must be a bug from an update. Checking the fixes and improvements from microsoft we got this. I guess this was what went wrong.

    I am also having the same issues:

    The combobox drop down looks like this, but it should be two lines:

    Here is the input:

    It seems everyone on this thread believes its a bug, so as of this post the bug has still not been fixed.

    I'm experiencing the same behaviour on comboboxes that worked fine last week. 

     

    Tried the following:

    1. Add a brand new combobox control to a canvas-app
    2. Set the 'Fields layout' to Double (using the 'ComboBoxSample' dataset)
    3. Specify value1 and value2 to be used as first and second line
    4. Data gets displayed as one line

     

    Seems like a rendering bug in PowerApps itself?
