Hi!

Is it posslible to select all text in an ComboBox on click as described here:

This would be a great feature.

Regards!

Hi,

this is not currently possible. I think it might be quite easy to achieve with an Extension to the ComboBox. On the client side, you would just get VFilterSelect.tb field (which is the TextBox element) and add a click handler to it and select all the text when the event fires.

Disclaimer: I didn’t actually try this :)
