The MultiDropdown view displays a dropdown list with a set of choices. The list can be bound to a search manager, but can also be used as a standard HTML dropdown list that emits change events. The MultiDropdown view returns one or more values in an array.
Name | Default value | Description |
| id | Required. The unique ID for this control. | |
| choices | [] | A static dictionary of choices for the dropdown list. Must be set in JavaScript. If bound to a managerid, the static choices specified here are prepended to the dynamic choices from the search. For example: var mychoices = [
{label:"text1", value: "value1"},
{label:"text2", value: "value2"},
{label:"text3", value: "value3"}
]; |
| default | The value of the choices that are selected by default. Multiple default choices can only be set in JavaScript as an array. | |
| disabled | false | Indicates whether to disable the view. |
| labelField | "" | The UI label to display for each choice. |
| managerid | null | The ID of the search manager to bind this view to. |
| showClearButton | true | Indicates whether to display that "x" next to choices, allowing a selection to be cleared. |
| value | The value of the current choice. | |
| valueField | "" | The value or search field for each choice. |
| width | 200 | The width of the view, in pixels. |
Name | Description |
| render | Draws the view to the screen. Called only when you create the view manually in JavaScript. |
| val | Returns the view's value if passed no parameters. Sets the view's value if passed a single parameter. |
Name | Description |
