List Box Properties

Tue, 13 May 2014 10:40:12 GMT

My Apologies for the dumb question.

I have created a list box with a general field and 3 expressions. Is there a way to put a column header on the expressions?

Thank you

Hi Roberto,

Right click on the list box, go to general tab and type your header into the Title field.

Marius

Marius,

Thanks, but this will only give the title of the list box. What I am looking is for the expressions that are created in the expressions tab, I would like to give them a column header (label).

I presume that this is a multi-box.

If so click on the field that you need to change and change the label value (initially blank).

Priya,

The simple solution that was proposed was to put a text box above the list box and align them with the columns!!

I do not think there is a way to create custom labels for the expressions in list boxes. If I do find a way it will be reposted here.

Roberto

You are correct. The expressions in a list box only offer a small subset of the options in a straight table. Try using the field as the dimension and the expressions as table expressions in a straight table. Enable the drop down list for that dimension.
