Put Same Data into Multiple Combo Boxes

I'm hoping there is a shortcut here :)

I need to put the same choices into about 40 combo boxes. Is there any way to say "put all this data into all 40 at once"? Or do I need to just put it in to each one individually.

Bonjour Noel,

you can of course say what you want, but in Rev you must fill every single combo box individually!

But with a "lock screen" and a repeat loop this is insanely fast :-)

Thanks for the info :)

I had a feeling I was going to have to do some kind of repeat loop, I was just hoping otherwise!

Sorry for having to disappoint you ;-)

Remember to "lock screen" before (m)any changes to ui elements happen, like putting text into field or filling combo boxes etc.

This will speed up things to a factor of > 100!

I'll take a look at Lock. I haven't used that before.
