The values I selected in my multi-select widget below showing up as N/A. Where did I go wrong in my configuration and how can I set it up correctly?
The optional displayValues attribute, defined in the "Display" field, sets the values displayed in the multi-select box. You can see the screenshots below:
Moving to the </> tab, if you set values for “selectedDisplayValues” then it will display those values rather than the “selectedValues”. When you set “SelectedDisplayValues”: [] you are telling Slate that there are no values to display. If instead you set “SelectedDisplayValues” = “” Slate would read this as no values entered in this field. Therefore, the widget will display the values configured in {{f_function1}} instead.
You check see more details about the multi-select widget here.

I am generating values in runtime so after every reload the values in the multiselect box is getting blanked. I am taking the values from a function. so I want to prefield that multiselect value. How can we do that?
You should be able to modify the values and displayValues (note: they must both be set) to the values that you'd like. For example, if you have a query, q_dropdown_fields, you should be able to set values & displayValues to q_dropdown_fields.values and q_dropdown_fields.displayValues, respectively; obviously the column names will depend on your query
There is a concrete example with pictures in the documentation, under https://www.palantir.com/docs/foundry/slate/concepts-variables/ . I'm not going to copy the whole tutorial here, but this image (taken from the tutorial) should answer how to pre-set static values in a slate widget.
I'm quite new to VBA and I've been looking around but cannot seem to find a solution to my problem.
I have made a navigation form (frmNavigation) with 3 buttons, each referring to a different form, let's call them frm1, frm2 and frm3. In the navigationform the control buttons to switch between tabs are all named differently (btn1, btn2, btn3), but the subform that shows either frm1, frm2, or frm3 has the same name: “NavigationSubform” (this shows a different form depending on which tab is clicked on, based on the 'navagation target name' referring to frm1, frm2 and frm3).
When I want to refer to a textbox (txtBox1) on form 1 (first tab) and insert a value i can do this by:
Forms!frmNavigation!NavigationSubform.Form!txtBox1.Value = "insert awesome text"
But how would I refer to txtbox10 on the second tab (frm2)? Just using the following does not work:
Forms!frmNavigation!NavigationSubform.Form!txtBox10.Value
You then get the error 2465 (can't find the field).
I’ve been trying many different things, but can’t seem to get it right. So how do I refer to a textbox on a different tab than the first one?
Help us much appreciated!
Only one subform can be loaded at once. So you've just got to break this process into two steps.
Store the value from txtBox1 somewhere outside of the NavigationSubforms (a textbox on the parent form with visible = no, a global variable or a table works).
In frm2's On Load event, set txtbox10 to be the value you stored.
Just note, that you will need to add conditions in the On Load event if you want to avoid that textbox being set to an empty string or a wrong value if you have a setup where your filter is changing.
I have a clarification,probably a simple one..Once we enter some values in input type for text,date ect ,the previous values which we entered is stored.(probably a cookie) until we give autocomplete off..
Why this happens only in textboxes and not in text area by default?
This is something which does not exist in browsers.
If you wish to have it, you can use the jQueryUI autocomplete widget on textareas.

I am using the djFilteringSelect control to show values in a dropdown as user type a value.
The lookup and typehead is working fine. The user type a letter and the dropdown allow the user to select a value which is then displayed in the dropdown field.
If the user now decide to remove the value first selected so that the combobox is empty and leave the field, then the first value in the list is now automatically filled in.
The consequence of this is that if the user have added a value there is no way to remove the value and leave the box emtpy.
I am using required=false for both the control and the dojo attribute but it does not seem to help. There are also a few other djFilteringSelect attributes I have tried like "Autocomplete" and "trim" but it does not work
Here is the code
<xe:djFilteringSelect id="test" type="select" store="jsondata" searchAttr="data" required="false" labelType="html" invalidMessage="Not valid">
<xe:this.dojoAttributes>
<xp:dojoAttribute name="required" value="false"></xp:dojoAttribute>
</xe:this.dojoAttributes>
</xe:djFilteringSelect>
Initally the field is not required, but if the user have entered a value it is required.
My question is if there a way to prevent the djFilteringSelect control to always populate the field if I have previously added a value
I found someone who solved this in another stack overflow topic, by creating an empty entry in my data store. but I could not get this to work
Dojo: Select of empty value for FilteringSelect while required=false
I do this quite a lot. Right now I don't have a working sample to show you (since I moved to bootstrap - and have to code the selects by manually adding select2 controls) but something like this should do it...
I add an "empty" value at the top of my select - and that seems to work no matter whether I am using a combobox, djCombobox or combobox with select2 from bootstrap. My markup typically looks like:
<xp:comboBox id="inputLocationSelector" value="#{User.catchListType}" disableClientSideValidation="true">
<xp:selectItem itemLabel="(none)" itemValue=""></xp:selectItem>
<xp:selectItems>
<xp:this.value><![CDATA[${Configuration.meta.listLocationTypeOptions}]]></xp:this.value>
</xp:selectItems>
</xp:comboBox>
Then you could specify "(none)", "All" or " " for the "not-selected" value depending on your needs.
Validation is a different thing so just specifying "required=false" does not give you the "empty" value.

This question was very helpful, however I have a list control in my report, and when the report grows over 1 page, data in the header only shows up on the last page of the report.
Apparently, hidden textboxes have to be on every page of the report for header to function properly. How do I do that? The only control I have in the list is a textbox with bunch of text that grows way over 1 page.
Although SSRS does not allow us to use DataSet fields in page headers, it allows us to refer to report items. So we could place a textbox (that takes its value from a DataSet field) anywhere in our report's body and set its Hidden property to true.
Then, we could easily refer to that textbox in the page header with an expression like: =ReportItems!TextBox1.Value and we are done. Note that the textbox that is being referred should be present on every page, or otherwise the header will print an empty value.
sExchange website to the rescue!!!
All I needed to do is to use Report Parameters with queried values from my dataset; and then reference =Parameters!Name.Value in the textbox in the header of the report.
Select Report Parameters, Add new parameter and check hidden, allow null and allow blank value.
If you are retrieving the values from database:
Under Available Values:
check "from query" radio button and provide dataset,value field and label fields.
Under Default Values:
check "from query" radio button and provide dataset,value fields.
Now provide the value for text box in the footer/header as =Parameters!Footer.Value (Footer is the parameter name).
the hidden text boxes can be placed within a rectangle that was a repeatwith property set to be your list item.
