List Box Input (legacy)

This node is part of the legacy Quick Form nodes and will be deprecated soon. The replacement for this node can be found in the configuration/widget nodes. For more information on these new nodes see this blog post.

Outputs a data table with one column holding a list of strings. The value can also be controlled from a quick form (web port).

The node supports custom CSS styling. You can simply put CSS rules into a single string and set it as a flow variable 'customCSS' in the node configuration dialog. You will find the list of available classes and their description on our documentation page.

Options

Label: A descriptive label that will be shown in, for instance the web port.
Description: Some lines of description that will be shown in the remote control form, for instance by means of a tooltip.
Hide in Dialog: If the setting should be hidden in the sub node dialog.
Variable Name: Variable identifier and column name.
Parameter Name: Parameter identifier for external parameterization (e.g. batch execution).
Separator: An undelimited list of char separators including \n and \t. All tokens are used as delimiters.
Separate at each character: If enabled the input value will be split into a list of characters, the separator will be ignored.
Omit Empty Values: If enabled empty values will be omitted from the output table and do not have to pass the check for validation.
Regular Expression: Regular expression defining valid values.
Validation Error Message: Message that will be shown if one of the values is not valid. The character ? will be replaced by the invalid value.
Common Regular Expressions: A set of regular expression templates for common inputs. With the assign button you assign the regular expression and the corresponding error message to be the current settings.
Default Value: The value that is selected by default.
Number of visible options: A number of options visible in the List Box component without a vertical scroll bar. Changing this value will also affect the component's height.
