Application Studio - Changing options in a drop down

Espa · November 9, 2023, 3:52pm

I’m looking to remove Part Num from the Material Drop down in Job Adjustment. Ideally we’d like to see the full Description text in the drop down.

Seems like it should be simple in Application Studio, but I don’t know where to start. Anyone have ideas?

Create a new combo-box underneath with the same settings as above but in the Retrieve Columns of your custom one remove PartNum

Then hide the base combo-box. Just be careful as the comobo-box may be linked to datarules or events based on it’s id.

You may want to rename the original xx_cmbMaterial and name yours cmbMaterial

Thank you! I couldn’t get the combo box working (beginner over here) so I used the default just so I could populate it. Since I just need to see the full description, do you know of a way to increase the width? If I try to type number into the width properties, nothing happens.
