Kinetic Combo Box

Does anyone know how to reset a combo box after each save? We have a kinetic application built on a UD table. One of the fields is controlled by a listed combo box (which works fine), but it does not clear the value in the combo box after the data is saved, or after getNew.

What is the EPBinding under data for this combo box? The only times I’ve seen fields not get cleared out on a getNew is when there was something wrong with the binding so it wasn’t actually tied to a field in the dataview.

It is UD100A.ChildKey3 is there something else I should have used instead?

Can you post screenshots of all of the settings for that combo box?

I sure can.

List Settings Cont'd

I’d like to see what’s in the list settings as well.

Are you familiar with the dev tools in Chrome? My next troubleshooting step would be to use the dev tools to see what value is actually in the dataview when you do a getNew and you expect that field to be blank.

List Detailed Settings

The list settings is just fourteen or so rows of this with different displays and values. I am not familiar with the dev tools, but I can take a minute to look into it and see what may be causing the issue there.

Since it is bound to the UD100A.ChildKey3, it should clear when that value is cleared.
Values usually don’t get cleared on save, and as @cory.davis indicated, you’ll want to see what is happening when you getNew to see why that value is not getting overwritten with a new (empty) value.

It may well be that UD100 is not the primary table, so it doesn’t get overwritten each time New is called

I see. That makes more sense than what I was thinking before. I will look into it with this new info. Thanks guys!

You can get to the dev tools in chrome by hitting F12, then click back into your kinetic window and hit Ctrl+Alt+8 to turn on Debug Logging (you’ll see it say this in the console tab of the dev tools) then you can click on the kinetic window and hit Ctrl+Alt+v to get a snapshot of all of the dataviews.
