Odd combobox behaviour....

[SamSandq]

I create a Combo like this:

Combo *filter = combo_create();
layout_combo(filtLayout, filter, 3, 0);
combo_add_elem(filter, "1+ stars", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "2+ stars", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "3+ stars", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "4+ stars ", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "5 stars", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "(no filter)", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "(unrated)", NULL);

That works perfectly, and shows:

But what I really want is this:

combo_add_elem(filter, "★%", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "★★%", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "★★★%", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "★★★★%", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "★★★★★", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "(no filter)", NULL);
combo_add_elem(filter, "(unrated)", NULL);

which does not show correctly, as some elements are discarded:

What could be wrong?

Hi @SamSandq! I add this new case to the ComboBox review.

Related to: https://github.com/frang75/nappgui_src/issues/81 https://github.com/frang75/nappgui_src/issues/68

FYI, the popup control works perfectly, and in my case is also better, since I do not wish to be able to edit the values.

However, I noticed that there is no way to access the text of the selected popup choice, only the index. Perhaps a

char_t *txt = popup_text(myPopup);

or

char_t *txt = popup_text(myPopup, index);

could be considered.

Thanks for update. Therefore, I leave this issue open. Full review of ComboBox is mandatory.

You can get the text of selected Item in OnSelect event as part of EvButton event parameters. But also is a good idea to add const char_t *popup_get_text(const PopUp *popup, const uint32_t index) to public interface.

Yes, I am using that to get the selected text. But what I am after is to get the text of any item using its index.

Cheers, Sam
