Created attachment 998043 [details] customer provided sample dialog display showing single item in dropdown box Description of problem: Catalog dialog with single element dropdown box fails to allow the single element to be selected causing dialog to fail Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):5.3.2.6.20150108100920_387a856 How reproducible: sample dialog screen is provided to show context. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: single item in dropdown box is not selectable Expected results: item in dropdown box should be selectable regardless of number of items in dropdown box. Additional info:
In response to the question "Is this a dynamic dialog?" the customer has responded ===== Yes, this is a dialog element of type "Drop Down Dynamic List" with Entry Point /AEXP/Migration/Dialogs/get_failed_vms with "Load Values on init" checked what the get_failed_vms method does is retrieves a list of VMs with a set of specific tags. ======== the method.zip attachment above contains a screen image of the "Editing Dialog" and the ruby code to populate the dropdown element of the panel.
Suggest setting the default_value when then list only contains 1 item. Code change would look something like this: dialog_field['values'] = list dialog_field['default_value'] = list[0].first if list.length == 1 Tom - Can you suggest this work-around and let us know if this works for them?
Greg, Thanks for the fast response. Jared is back and is covering Josh's cases while he is in class so he will be responding to the customer. Tom Hennessy
Shveta, can you please try to reproduce this and create a trello card for getting an automated test around it
Greg, Again, thanks for the code to address the issue, but I guess the question still is, is this a usage bug (customer usage) or should the dialog still allow for manual selection regardless of the number of elements in the dropdown box? Tom Hennessy
I proposed the default_value as a work-around, the dialog should still allow for the manual selection.
Greg, Customer has implemented your suggested work-around and reports positive results. SF case may be closed next week. Just wanted to provide feedback on your suggestion. thanks. Tom Hennessy
Tom - Thanks for the feedback. I am going to drop the priority and severity to medium since we have a work-around.
Erik - As a possible fix it would make sense for the model to set the value if the values returned from automate is a single item.
Working in build 5.3.3.2.20150217120931_a465215
