editor variable "ask": list of values instead of default value

We have recently launched a new custom oxygen framework for a project. Oxygen's frameworks are a great instrument to provide custom xml-actions and toolbars to the user! Thank you for providing this amazing tool!

Thereby we often used the editor variable

Code: Select all

${ask('Message', input_type, 'default_value')}
- this is a very useful function in building actions! But often we would have loved to have the possibility to define a list auf values (instead of only one default value) and presenting these values in a selectbox in the dialogbox. We think that would be nice feature?! :wink:

Hello,

Thank you for the feedback.

I have logged your request to our issue tracking tool. This will be analyzed and if found appropriate, it will be implemented in a future version of Oxygen.

Regards,
Adrian

Hi,

Oxygen 14.1 was released and the $ask editor variable should now allow editing values using a combo box:
