Is there a way to keep items in the dropdown list in an angular-mutliselect-ui-select control?
I want to click an item, so it is added as selected but keep it in the list (if it is clicked again- nothing should happen).
Straightforward hack is to change $select.removeSelected = true; to false in select.js. A small example is here (see script.js, line: 1244), may be there is a way to do it externally without modifying script.js.

I'm trying to select an item from a list that's sorted the same way as a ToggleGroup I have besides it. However, I found that toggleGroup.getToggles().indexOf(toggleGroup.getSelectedToggle()) always returns -1 (visible in the IndexOutOfBoundsException thrown as I pass it). Is there another way of figuring out the index, or am I at a loss with my approach and need to figure out something completely different?
UPDATE: Apparently, for the first time an item is selected (I have this code attached to changes of selectedToggleProperty()), it works fine (I just get no notice of it because the elements I make visible have no proper layout). However, when an item is selected while another item already is selected, getselectedToggle() becomes null, causing aforementioned behavior.
All of the JavaFX toggle controls have a property called UserData. You should use that to create the links between the toggles and data list. Relying on the index of the toggles in the toggle group is probably a bad idea.
When I add a drop-dialog to a list page, the drop dialog drops down when I click on it, but does not disappear when I click somewhere else.
I am trying to add my own drop-dialog, but I can reproduce this issue with standard Dynamics AX objects. I guess I am just missing some property on an object, but I just cannot figure out which one.
If you want to reproduce my problem in order to solve it, do the following:
Create a new Form. (Form 1)
Change the FormTemplate property to ListPage (Click on Yes)
Add the query MainAccountListPage to the DataSources
Create an ActionPanTab.
Add a Drop-dialog button with the menu item MainAccountListPageBalanceParameters.
Save and open the new List page by right clicking and choosing open. (or open the menu item)
In my case, when I click on Parameters, the drop dialog drops down. When I then click outside the drop-dialog, it disappears as it should.
Create a new display menu item. Set the object to the new list page (Form 1)
Drag the Menu item to any menu. I added mine to General ledger (Common)
Restore, open new workspace. Click on the new menu item in the general ledger menu.
Click on “parameters” and click outside the drop dialog.
When I do this the drop dialog does not disappear again. You can see this same drop dialog working fine on the Main Accounts list page. I have tried changing properties on both menu items, on the menu, on the form etc. I have tried different drop dialogs and different list pages. It always works on the details page and when opened from the AOT.
Am I missing a property? Is the entire way I am adding the drop dialog wrong?
The answer to the above example is.. add the MainAccountDetailPart Form part to the list page's (Form1) Parts.
With my other example, EcoResProductPerCompanyListPage, I had to add the EcoResProductVariantsPerCompanyFactBox to Parts.
I have no idea why this is, but adding a part to a list page fixes the drop dialogs. For example, adding MainAccountDetailPart Form part to a new list page not only fixes the MainAccountListPageBalanceParameters in my example, but it also fixes any other drop dialog that previously did not want to close. Removing the part the breaks all the drop dialogs in the list page again.
Thanks, FH-Inway, for the suggestion, I would have never have found the answer without your method. The solution really surprised me!
I have a WKInterfaceMenu added to the storyboard which is working great. However, once used, I don't want the menu to appear for a second time.
Is there a way of preventing the menu from appearing?
You can definitely do this, but you need to do things a bit differently.
First off, don't set up the context menu in the storyboard. Instead, set up all the menu items programmatically. You can add and remove menu items using the addMenuItemWithImageNamed and clearAllMenuItems methods on your WKInterfaceController instance.
You want to set up all your menu items initially, then remove them in all your callback methods for each menu item. That way, they'll be there at first, and will be removed once you select one of them.
I am wanting to allow for a user to deselect all values in a ListBox. Normally, when the user deselects all but one item, that one item cannot be deselected. I want to make it so it can be.
Thanks
Essentially I'm aware of two ways of doing this:
Add an empty item to the list. You can even name this item "None" or something similar. Using a text has the additional advantage that it informs the user.
Use JavaScript to unselect the item that is clicked if it is the last item.
Note, either way, you change the default behavior of the listbox, which is what users are accustomed to. Changing the default behavior is generally not a good idea, which is why I would go for option (1) being the clearest towards your users.
1) Have a listbox with 3 values out of 5 selected
2) When I click to select another value without holding CTRL button, it will unselect over values
How to make it keep other selected values if new value is selected?
This is going to sound like a snide answer, but I don't mean it that way. I just like to look for the simple solutions rather than the complicated onces.
The easiest way to get a control to have the behavior you want is to use a control that has the behavior that you want, rather than modifying the behavior of an existing control.
That said, if you want a list of items where a user can select a bunch of items off the list, and don't want to have to rely on them holding control, you're using the wrong tool for the job.
Use a CheckBoxList instead of a ListBox. If you want it to be scrollable, then set it in a div of a specific height, and set the style of the div to "overflow: scroll".
If you still want to use a ListBox you should use javascript and for each click event fired, you should check if the clicked element is selected/unselected and act accordingly. It's a little bit tricky but at least it is a solution for your problem.
