Hello Focal Point Forums,

How can I display value items inside Listbox on tooltip. Because I have more than 100 characters long in listbox. Listbox is not wide enough to display all values.

Thanks in advance.
Dave

In HTML it's possible by using the 'title' property in the 'OPTION' tag.

I don't recall be able to provide more that 'value' and 'display' in Webfocus.

You should be able to pull it off with scripting.

Good luck,
Dave

Why can't you make the listbox wide enough to display the 100 characters?

Not sure if you can get the GUI to do this, but as Dave suggested, use the title tag:

<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<select>
<option value="zzz" title="Export to Excel - HTML Composer">Export to Excel - HTML Composer</option>
<option value="aaa" title="[CASE OPENED] HTML Composer + MRE + JavaScript: problem in FF, Chrome, Safari, Opera">HTML Composer problem in FF...</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
