Listbox multiple attribute ?

Post by amc »

I want to display a list box that allows multiple items to be selected, but can't find how to enable the "multiple" attribute - is this possible in PUI ?

Currently there is not an option to allow multiple selections in a list box.

Are there any plans to enable this functionality, possibly returning the choices as a string or array?

This is not currently in the development schedule, but I wanted to offer a possible alternative.

You could create a grid with a single column. You would need to load it and read from it like any other grid, but a grid would support selecting multiple rows when the "Row Selection" property is set to one of the "multiple" options.

Would this be a viable alternative for you?

We have looked into this further and have determined that it is quick and simple for us to add this feature for List Boxes. This will be implemented in the next release of Profound UI.

Thank you. I was looking at some of my old CGI programs and trying to come up with a way to do it that wasn't too complicated. I'm glad you are adding it.

You guys are the best!

Thanks!
