Setting and Getting the Current Selection

The default selection is the first value in the list. You can explicitly set the currently selected value by means of the option gadget's select() method:

!!Layout2.Colour.select('Dtext','Orange')

!!MyForm.Circle.select('directory/circle/cenrad')

You can read the current selection using the selection() method. This will return the replacement-text (or the display-text if replacement-texts were not defined):

!SelectedText = !This.List.Selection()

The .val member reads the index number of the currently selected value:

!ChosenNumber = !!Form.List.Val

The clear() method will discard both display- and replacement-text lists:

!!MyForm.Colours.clear()
