Hello,

I'm having an issue that the property "IsSearchable" don't hold the "true" value, it's changing back to false, for information:

I already tried to restart the program, so I think that's not a bug, it's not a delegation problem, the collection database only have 10 values, but, those values are only numbers, when i change them manually into a text "like: ["1";"2";"3"] it works.

So I think that's a Integer issue, there's any way to workaround this? the original datasource it's a static excel table, may be if I convert when collecting? but I don't know how.

For further explanations:

At button that collect those data from excel:

Collect(colEscopoPolos;EscopoStaticDB.POLOS_COLUMN)

And at combobox "items" property:

Thank you!

The search feature in the Combobox control works against text fields only.

The IsSearchable property is therefore switching itself back to false because the source data contains only a single column of numbers.

If you add an additional column that includes the text representation of the number, that should resolve the problem.

Collect(colEscopoPolos; AddColumns(EscopoStaticDB.POLOS_COLUMN; "POLOS_COLUMN_DISPLAY"; Text(POLOS_COLUMN) ) )

Yes, this solved the problem 🙂
The only thing that resulted in a few blank lines, just added:

RemoveIf(colEscopoPolos;IsBlank(POLOS_COLUMN))

And it's done, thanks for your reply.
