Platform Server Release Oct.2019

The idea is to allow an expression to be used in the Option field of a ComboBox. This can be useful if we use the same Option for all combo boxes our application uses. Then a site property can be defined and its value re-used in all combo boxes.

Hi Rafael,

That's a great idea. We're working on the next generation of web applications and we intend to provide this functionality in the dropdown widgets. Expect some news about this soon.

Cheers,

Hi Rafael,


Although we do not have plans to add new features to traditional web apps, in reactive web (and mobile) apps the dropdown has an "Empty Text" property that can be set using a global client variable.


Thanks for your idea,

Tiago Simões
