Re: how to show list for selected items in canvas apps form

hey @mtsts

what does the Displayfield of the dropdown say?

click on the dropdown and on the right hand side tab you see Fields and next to it says edit. click that and have a look at the properties there

maybe also be the case that the text of the options is too long to display them

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 @mtsts,

It is a known issue that ComboBox will directly display the count of selected items if the item name is too long.

There is no OOTB way to make item names fully expand.

As a workaround, you could add a Label under the ComboBox with Text property as below to display all the selected items:

Concat(ComboBox.SelectedItems,Value,",")

Or, you could set the Tooltip property of the ComboBox as the same above formula, so that it will display full name when you hover your mouse cursor over the ComboBox.
