Hi.

I had to solve this a while ago.  What you can do is to handle the list
yourself. ie., don't let the OS set the label based on the selection.  When a
list item is selected, return handled=true so it won't automatically set the
label.  You can set a shorter label based on selection. For example, if I have
"Creation Date" in the list, I will set the trigger label to "C.Date".

Or you can return handled=true for the trigger's ctlselect event and popup the
list using LstPopupList. This function only returns when user select an item or
tap something else on screen, which is really handy sometimes. Based on the
selection, you can set whatever label you want for the trigger.
