Hai

I am using double list control in my UI.
When I populate it dynamically from a table, values go in correctly but BY DEFAULT one value goes into the "TO" list box. How to avoid this and make all data stay in "FROM" list box?

Thank you..

What release do you have? By default the first value, or selected value if you picked on at design time, is selected. In later releases, we have a property called "Default selection" which will change that to what you would like.

We use 7.6.11. When entering static values, we can set a selected value but when getting it dynamically, there is nothing to set as selected value..? I have this in the code but still it takes 1st value into it..

  
default="" selectedvalue=""

One other gotcha we discovered is that the double-list does not preserve the order of items selected when using the Save Parameters function. When the page is re-loaded the selected items appear in the order they were in on the available side of the list rather than in the order you placed them on the selected side.

We just re-engineered our apps to use 2 single lists and added the necessary JavaScript for the buttons.

Hi, did you ever have a work around for this? I am having the same issue in 7703.

Thanks

I haven't had this particular issue in v7.7.03 or v7.7.05.

Here's what things look like in HTML Composer:

Thank you Francis, I did some further checking and my co-worker that is having this issue is using a RIA theme which appears to be causing the issue. I did a simple test, created a page with only a double list control on it and no RIA theme, works perfectly. I then added the RIA, which added in defaults that I changed to "no" and viola, broken. No matter what I try, if there is a RIA theme used there is always a default selection in the selectto box.

I would not use RIA. As far as I know, it's not supported in v8.

We only have this one existing project that is using RIA. It's pretty extensive and has been in the works for some time. It will have to be re-done in v8. But we still have to get it to work in 7703 for awhile longer. I too was under the impression that RIA was not used in v8, but see that RIA themes can still be selected in the Document in HTML Composer v8, and there are more themes now.
