Don't see dropdown choices on grids?

Hi, In my app, I’ve noticed that all of the choices of dropdowns do show in forms such as add and edit but in grid view, I only see a message asking me to type letters so that relevant choices appear. Is there a way to fix this? BTW, of course this is when inline editing is allowed.

Hello Harry,

This issue has been raised interally by tb community and now noticed by external evaluators… see this Sonorus Consulting

Issue exist not just on your app but throughout entire platform ie…Its not a bug or poor design by you. As far as i know, unless someone else can comment otherwise, problem occurs only on ‘connected’ fields and not on ‘select’ fields. Be aware of similar issue - cant set default values on ‘Connected’ fields like you can with ‘select’ options field. Apparently a plug-in is avaible to solve that issue. Surely would have been easier to simply add it as standard feature in tb dev console.

Also ability to create new record by clicking on last empty row on bottom of table aslo isnt availble. Standard features like that were around since 1990’s in MS Access, Visual Basic date table components. Cant see this one being introduced anytime soon.

first image below is connected field and second image is select field for your info.
