Hello,

I have a combobox with multiple selection on. When the user unselect something and select it again later, the text shown on the combobox isn't sorted alphabetically. It is sorted by order of selection. It's not a huge issue but I would like to give the user a clean UI with sorted items. It will allow him to see at a glance what is selected and what is not.

Just an observation - Modern Controls are mostly still in Preview and contain many "bugs" such as this. They really are not production-ready presently.

hey

can u try this:

Concat(Sort(ComboBox1.SelectedItems, DisplayField, SortOrder.Ascending), DisplayField, ", ")

Replace Combobox1 with the name of your combobox and DisplayField with the field you are using as the display text in the combobox.

if it helped please mark as verified answer,

cheers
