HOW TO: use a combobox like a pull down menu.

Classic Servoy

Comboxes are very handy for quickly filling of values in fields.
But you can also use the combobox as an pseudo pull down menu.
This is not a new feature, so many developers will already know that this is possible in Servoy. For newbies however, it might be interesting having a look at the attached files to see how this is/can be done.

Attached one zipfile with two files: combo.servoy and combo.gdb

  1. copy ‘combo.gdb’ in: c:\program files\servoy\database
  2. connect Servoy to database: Edit->Preferences->DBServers
    ->Auto Setup Server ->Firebird: URL: = combo.gdb
    Servername: combo
  3. import solution in Repository: File->Repository->import: combo.servoy
  4. open solution: ‘combo’

Enjoy!
