non-editable combo not displaying data provider value

Classic Servoy

I have a data provider field which is formatted as a non-editable combo (combo1) and a a value list attached to it. The data provider has some data in it. If the data provider’s data is not in the valuelist then the combo1 does display the data in it.

Is this the intended behaviour? I would like the actual data to be diplayed on the combo even though the valuelist does not contain it.

Thanks

As far as I know, not sure though, when a field is non-editable you can’t edit it so you force the field to hold one of the attached values of the list otherwise you would have ‘edited’ the field.

marcel is right.
That is not possible. If the valuelist doesn’t contain the value. It can’t select one of these values so it can’t display it.
