Components

ListBox and ComboBox

Drag the ListBox on the stage
• Double click the Label line in the Parameters – and you will see the Values panel appears. Enter several labels – they will correspond to items in the list box. Using Values panel you may add, delete and rearrange list items
• Double click Values line in the Parameters – the Values panel will pop up again. Now you may enter the data, which will be collected when user select the certain item from the list box. They may be the same as label but in many situations you will wish to collect the formalized identifiers rather them long descriptive label content. For example if user chooses "North Carolina" label from the list you may wish to keep "NC" as a response.

• If you change "Select Multiple" to "true" user will be able to pick several items by holding Shift or Control as for traditional GUI components
• You may adjust the height of the list box to display less or more items at once by changing it height in Properties Inspector

ComboBox is quite similar to ListBox, however

It has a drop-down list.

You may make the combo box editable (look at Parameters panel) – and user may not only pick up the items but enter the new one

There is a RowCount parameter that tells how many items are displayed in drop-down list
