xfa.host.openList

[Marty_McFly73]

Hi everyone.  I am using this in the "enter" event for my dropdown list:

xfa.host.openList("Dropdown2");

When I tab onto that field, the list does open but only for a quick second and then closes.  Does anyone know how I can make this list stay open?

Putting that code in the MouseEnter event works too but that will not work if I'm using "tab".

Thanks so much in advance!

You can use the same code on 'initialize' event.

Thank you so very much for your response however placing the code in the "initialize" event causes the same issue.  The drop down list will open for a split second and then close.  Any other assistance would be GREATLY appreciated.

Here i'm talking about the form's initialize event, not dropdown's initialize event.

In theory, wouldn't that keep the dropdown box open the entire time the form is being viewed?

As soon as you will select any other component, dropdown will close automatically.
