      Hi guys!
      How can I make an item not selectable or disabled on a combo box?
      Meaning it still visible (grayed usually) but not selectable.
      Couldn’t find any reference to this anywhere.
      Thanks in advance

        @hisefilo I wondered the same recently but also found nothing in the docs. I don't know if it's possible.
        For my project I'm using several cBox with the same choices. I ended up using a "if user selects a cBox value which is already used by another one, change the value of the other one" system

          does this work?

          if (value == optionIDidntActuallyWant)
              return;
          else
              doNormalCBThings();

              @Matt_SF You can draw individual items in a combo box, so just draw it with a grey colour.

                yeh im trying to write up a quick snippet but i can't remember how to push the combobox values into an array... brain too sleepy

                Edit: there actually is one issue with using return; the value of the ComboBox still changes, despite it ignoring whatever code you put after the return call.

                You might have to use a panel if you depend on the value of the combobox not changing, unless there's some sneaky way to ignore the value update before the actual control callback, which would kill 2 birds with 1 function

                  @iamlamprey local items = ComboBox.get("items).split("\n");

                  the value of the ComboBox still changes,

                  So change it back ;)

                      oh my! Thanks David I have completely overlooked this 👍.
                      Where are you on your "I'm being stupid" tee-shirts idea ? I might require a dozen of them...

                                yeah I think "...2022" is actually a bit narrower than the time frame I've been stupid in....
