Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello, 

I'm trying to set a dropdown, with a simple list like : ["Seattle", "Tokyo", "London", "Johannesburg", "Rio de Janeiro"].

Instead of showing text it shows numbers. Can you help please ?

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    For combobox you need to adjust the primary text:
