showing initial data in combobox

Postby Jay » Sun Oct 07, 2018 8:09 pm

additem only shows when I click the combobox. If I want to see the certain number or string first before I click the combobox, what class or methods should I use? I couldn't find proper ways after reading jadeworld documentation.

thank you .

I think what you are after is something like:

comboBox.listIndex := 1;

that will show the first item in the combo

Further to the reply from Stokes, you could also set the ComboBox::text property to the desired 'initial' value, saves having to work out what ComboBox::listIndex value you should use for that desired 'initial' value.
