Good day  @JSC

The List Box control is a single column multi-select control, enabling the user to select one or more items at once. Display a list of values where single or multiple items can be selected

How to use list box control :

1. Create a View.

2.  Drag the List Box control onto the canvas. The control can be found in the Input section of the Controls found in the View Designer, see the Properties section below.

3. Configure the Type under the Data Source of the Properties

4. Configure the rest of the properties as required.

• Configure rules as required.
• Run the View.
• Select one or more records to be actioned.

List BoxConsiderations:

• Cannot filter a List Box control according to another control.

• If the Maximum Selection property is set to one, the Selection Mode property is multiple and a selection is made at runtime, that value must be deselected before selecting another

• If the Maximum Selection property is set to one, the Selection Mode property is single and a selection is made at runtime, another value can be selected without having to deselect the previous value. Simply click on the next to deselect the previous.

Enjoy.

Thanks for the answers. We thought, that we can use the ListBox similar to a editable List view. This seems not to be the case...
