Drop fields do not work properly

[astahl]

Bruce,

I have a small states file with 55 rows. When using a drop field on a form with NTWS 12 it no longer drops 15 at a time with scroll bar, but drops all 55.

How do I get it to drop only 15 rows with a scroll bar?

See:

Also, you have CSS options.

For example:

ul[role="listbox"] {height: 15em;}

This will change the height of ALL Unordered List <ul> elements.  It gets the element by its attribute "role" with a value of "listbox."

Or, you can target a specific element by its id attribute:

#VehicleGuid-menu {height: 15em;}  ! This is from one of my drop downs.

But, as Bruce said, a fix is coming in 12.04.

Hi added this to my customer css
Works great 12.03

.ui-selectmenu-open ul {
height: 30em ;
}

change 30em to 15em for fewer lines to display.

Also have found when using a queue that it does not follow the order of the queue.

  YearQ.SearchYear = YEAR(TODAY())      !2021
  ADD(YearQ)
  YearQ.SearchYear = YEAR(TODAY()) - 1 !2020
  ADD(YearQ)
  YearQ.SearchYear = YEAR(TODAY()) - 2 !2019
  ADD(YearQ)
  YearQ.SearchYear = YEAR(TODAY()) - 3 !2018
  ADD(YearQ)
  YearQ.SearchYear = YEAR(TODAY()) - 4 !2017
  ADD(YearQ)
  YearQ.SearchYear = YEAR(TODAY()) - 5 !2016
  ADD(YearQ)
  YearQ.SearchYear = YEAR(TODAY()) - 6 - 2015
  ADD(YearQ)

It always shows the last one first. 2021 should be the default year and not 2015
