This component creates a drop-down list field (also known as a Combo Box) on the form. It uses the following input properties:

FieldName (required): This string links the Form Template Part to a Field in the form's entity. For this input property, replace the <Required> default with Name of an Entity Field that has a static value list. See Standard Combo Drop-down List for more information.
ShowLabel (required): When set to 1, the specified LabelCaption appears on the form. When set to 0, the LabelCaption does not appear. This input property defaults to 1.
LabelCaption: This string specifies an optional caption that can appear on the form to the left of the field.
Style (required): Specifies the combo box style. The options are:
- 0: Dropdown Combo: With this style, a user can manually type a value within the field or select from the list of pre-defined values using the drop-down arrow. This is the default style that is used for combo boxes that are automatically generated by the Aptify Baseline Form Template Generator for fields that are not required.
- 1: Dropdown List: With this style, a user cannot type within the field. The user can only select from the list of pre-defined values using the drop-down arrow. This is the default style that is used for combo boxes that are automatically generated by the Aptify Baseline Form Template Generator for required fields. Info: The Simple Combo box style is no longer supported in Aptify 5.0 and will not be supported in future version.
- 2: Simple Combo: With this style, the list of pre-defined values appear directly below the field (as shown in the example). A user can manually type a value within the field or select from the list of pre-defined values. Note that you need to increase the height of this field to display the dropdown list.
FontName: This string specifies the font used for the LabelCaption and field value. It defaults to Tahoma.
LabelWidth (required): This property specifies the width of the LabelCaption in pixels. A typical LabelWidth in Aptify is between 79 and 99 pixels.
DisableGeDataTransfer: This is an advanced setting for forms that include a layout control. In Aptify 6.0, this input property is updated so that when it is set to 1, the component value comes from the bound control, and when it is set to 1, the component is updated from the generic entity or is it refreshed from another data access method. The default value is 0.
LabelCaptionCultureString: This string specifies the culture string used to localize the label. For this input property, specify the base string for the applicable Culture String record. See Working with Culture Strings for more details.
