Dropdown doesn't display data in the dropdown list

[f-rank]

Using an ArrayDataSource to populate a dropdown

dropjogs.fontSize = 15;
dropjogs.text = “jogadores”;
dropjogs.customStyle.fontSize = 15;
dropjogs.dataSource = jogadoresPT;

then adding. It doesn’t show the data contents on the dropdown list.
But I can select it from the list and it shows up as selected.
Maybe the text size isn’t getting initialized somehow.

There was a recent change where the default item renderer uses “text” rather than “value” to make things a little more consistent… can i see your data source? My guess is its using “value”?

FYI, from :HaxeUI v1.1 released! - #3 by ianharrigan

.text is now used rather than .value in default items renderers

This isnt a huge change, but may cause some confusion with existing UIs: previously to show text in a dropdown, or listview, or tableview you would use .value , this has changed now to make things more consistent to .text , eg:

var ds = new ArrayDataSource<Dynamic>();
ds.add({text: "Item 1"});
ds.add({text: "Item 2"});
ds.add({text: "Item 3"});

This applies to xml also - if you find your lists not showing data after the update, try changing your population method to use .text

Fixed it. Thanks!
Was wondering because I remember using these in older stuff.
