Displaying values from a Choice in ComboBox

Posted on by Hagru

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?

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.

Let me know if my answer helped solving your issue.

If it did please accept as solution and give it a thumbs up so we can help others in the community.

Greetings

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.
