RAMP-TSAD04 Step 5. Add a Drop-Down
In this step you will make the State and Country field a drop-down which shows states in the US. The data for the drop-down comes from a static table which is shipped with aXes eXtensions.
1. Click on Edit Screen in the aXes Designer window.
2. Select the State and Country field on the DisplayEmployee screen.
3. In aXes Designer, change its extension from Default Visualization to Drop-Down:
4. Change the dataSourceType of the drop-down to Static Table.
5. Specify USState as the tableName.
6. Save the screen customization.
7. Test the drop-down:
You can set the values displayed in the drop-down also by entering fixed values or by using a dynamic table. The aXes tutorials contain detailed information about how to do this.
