I set my ComboBox.DisplayFields property to: ["Nome"] and it subbornly changes it back to ["ComplianceAssetID"].

The same happens with the SearchFields property.

And it doesn't matter if I try to make the change the properties on the formula bar or on the right panel.

The data source is a SP list where the column Name is present.

Is this a trick or something???

Are you using Distinct in your formula or better still can you show the formula on the items property of the Combobox

I tested similar formula at my end but I could display multiple Fields.

Did I mention that dropdowns and comboboxes are flaky sometimes? 😂😂

Same **bleep** again.

I change the DisplayFields and SearchFields and they go back to whatever they want and completely mess all the app.

Only this time closing an opening doesn't work.

It's another dropdown, but yes it is also happening on this one too.

@WebPortal

What is the items property for this one and what may be unique about the screen you have it on (following what you mentioned in that other post)?
