    Disabling a dropdown field

    I have a scenario where we disable some drop-down fields to prevent accidental change after a form is completed. However, we provide a checkbox that allows the editing of the form under certain conditions that will then enable the fields. Enabling a drop-down field that has been disabled...

    1. Does not change the color of the field.
    2. Does not allow you to type in the field.
    3. It does allow you to click the drop-down arrow and select a value.

    Hi Mahlon,

    Good catch on this one. Im also seeing that the opposite of this bug is also happening. That Being, A DropDown that is enabled on Screen load, and then Disabled by onscreen actions shows;

    1. Colour as Enabled(White)
    2. Still allowed to type in the field, and the search will return results
    3. The Dropdown arrow itself will be disabled however.

    Ive opened up a ticket with the development team here, and Ill report back once weve resolved this one.

    Thanks Mahlon!

    Regards,

    Ben
