List

General

  • List Source- Source of the list control. The valid data types are an Array of Strings, Integer or DateTime, Data Table, and an array of an Object.
  • Column - Chose the specific column in the data table or property in case of an Object array. This property to be set only when the list source property is either a data table or an array of an object.
  • Selected Value Binding - Bind the selected value of the dropdown in runtime either to an RPA Process argument or to an App field.
  • Default Selected Value- Default value to be shown in the control in runtime.
  • Tooltip - Tooltip to be displayed on the list. Use this to provide additional information on the control.
  • Hidden- If selected, hides the control in the runtime.
  • Disabled - If selected, disables the control in the runtime.

Events

  • Value changed - Configure what happens when the value is changed.

Style

  • Control Alignment - By default, inherits the parent alignment. A different alignment other than the parent can be set. To default to Parent's alignment, toggle the selected alignment icons to switch off the specific alignment.

    Note: Alignment is dependent on Parent's layout (Vertical vs. Horizontal).
  • Border - Sets the border for the control. Border Thickness, Border Color, and Corner Radius can be configured for the border.
  • Font - Sets the font of the control. Font family, size, color, and style ( Bold, Italic and Underline) can be configured in this section. By default, the control inherits the font family of its immediate parent container which is indicated by the keyword 'inherited'.
  • Margin - Sets the margin of the control. By default 4px margin is set. Top/Bottom and Left/Right margin properties are combined. These properties can be unlinked using the unlink button on the right side of the Margin section heading.
  • Size - The width and height of the control can be set in the size section. By default, the size is set to Auto. Min Width/ Min Height and Max Width/ Max Height are available under more (...) in the size section.

Note:

Virtual scrolling enhances the performance by loading only the relevant items in the viewport when in runtime. This only works when a height is configured and not set to auto.

If the Height property is set to auto, the size of the control in runtime and design time may not match. This happens because the control height depends on the number of rows returned in runtime, while in design time, the control is empty.

For any control with dynamic data, such as tables, lists, or custom lists, we recommend configuring a fixed height for improved performance.
