Question

Not able to filter a dropdown list of text values

Hi! I´m trying to make a simple record filter of a dropdown list, which contains a list of text. To make the dropdown, I point to a constant which contains a text array with the name of the suppliers:

But the fact is that, when I try to make a simple filter, it doesn´t work. If I put a text value, nothing appears. If I try with an expression ("Proveedor 1") I have the following error:

I think it´s because of the list, because the filters work properly in individual text fields.

What can I do to fix it?

    Can you provide the images in a higher resolution.

    Did you check all the tutorials and examples in the documentation?

      Hi Stefan, I searched in lots of examples and tutorials in the documentation, also in related questions of the forums, but my doubt was not solved. 

      1) The constant is a Text Array with the Supplier Names

      2) I put the dropdown list os labels and values pointing the constant (works OK)

      3) When I try to make a filter of the record in another interface, the filter is not working properly. Its like if the fact that the dropdown has a list avoided me to make a text filter

      In this example I tried the filter with an expression: nomProveedor in "Proveedor 1" (error in the image)

      Also, I tried the filter directly with text (nomProveedor = Proveedor 1), but returns null value

      Hi [mention:f1950f4100b949739ed29e1582abf1f2:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05],

      Did you try, instead of giving as string "Proveedor 1", with {"Proveedor 1"} as list of Text String which is the expected output of the Edit Value Expression dialog box (refer your 3rd image)?

      Thanks,
