Displaying values from a Choice in ComboBox

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello!

 

I can't believe I am asking this, but here we go..

 

I have made a Model Driven App, where I have Canvas pages. I have a table named "Spillere" (Players), and in there I have a column with a Global Choice called "Fot" (Foot). I want to add a ComboBox to my app that displays the two options "Left" and "Right". They have the index value of "1" and "2" in the Choice. 

 

I tried adding a ComboBox, changed the Items value to "Choices(Spillere.Fot)", but this is what I am getting in my ComboBox:

I don't know what these numbers are referencing, but they sure isn't "Left" and "Right". How can I display the correct values from the Choice in my ColumnBox?

    Hi @mmbr1606!

    That did it, thank you!

    I tried playing with the fields before posting, but it always came back with blank options for some reason.

    Must've done something wrong, because adding the Combobox again, inserting Choices(Spillere.Fot) in Items and adding the Value as a field worked well.

    hey @hagru 

     

    click on the inut controls so that it is selected. on the right hand side property pane you will see an otion that says fields. click this and a secondary menu opens where u can choose the value that should be displayed in the dropdown.
