[E10.2.700] Dashboard Custom Text Box goes to Read Only

Good Morning everyone,

With the new update, a dashboard I made had scrambled most of the customizations.
I have a BAQ asking for project ID, however it comes into the tracker as a dropdown. As Pictured here:

I followed a fix to make it a search box instead of a dropdown by creating a custom text box and connecting it to the appropriate column. However, it only loads as read only and will not let me change that property, for some reason?

Would anyone happen to have an insight on this? Thank you!

Is the Dashboard Prompt set to TRUE in the properties? This will do that when set to false.

And Read Only is set to FALSE?

The property is LOCKED to true, it won’t let me change it to false.

Also new oddity, I just tested the dashboard without the custom box and the “Project ID” on my tracker is filling with the Description on an “Inputs Only” option.

I would review all of your fields properties to be sure under the dashboard area and the bindings.

Make sure that is good.

Can you delete the control and save, exit, bring up the dashboard again and recreate it?

That did work, thank you!

Note: It took several tries, but it stuck eventually.

Well we have a new issue!
Prompt = true;
Honor Null = false;
Condition = StartsWith;
IsTrackerQueryControl = true;
QueryColum = Project_ProjectID;
ReadOnly = false;

However it isn’t working as a search. All projects populate in the grid.

Flip the condition to EQUALS and see if it filters correctly. Then flip back to StartsWith and test. StartsWith will start with what you have and return everything after that reference point. Not sure where your test project ID filter fits alphanumerically.
