Preload the picker control with data
 

Diagnoses


Is it possible to preload the picker control with data so the user does not have to click the search icon to see possible selections

Would be usedful when the control is beging filtered and less than 10 rows are being loaded to the picker control
 

Resolution

This is not possible, the resolving function is slightly different than the search function

you can make a use of the Autocomplete control as it provides suggestions while you type into the field. The control is in essence a text box that can be bound to a SmartObject which, at runtime, filters data in a drop-down by a Contains operator when a user captures a value.

If you use multi values in the picker, Autocomplete rule does not have this property but there is a workaround:
you can set a rule to transfer data to another textbox control or data label followed by a separator when a value is selected.
