After a bit of experimentation :) As an example here, I take DropListExample
On the DropList when you type something like 'Gr', nothing is shown but the list actually highlight it (in green -> second selection). So if then you press enter, it selects it. That's quite weird :) I will have a look of how to have the same behaviour without having to press enter and without having to duplicate the list code Ben On May 5, 2013, at 4:50 AM, DeNigris Sean <s...@clipperadams.com> wrote: > I'm having difficulty expressing a one-to-many relationship in a Spec UI (in > Pharo 2.0). > I want to have a dialog where the user can enter a business expense, which > will be assigned to a particular account (see screenshot). > > I tried: > - using a DropListModel.
