That was helpful! However when I look at the documentation and your
code, the following seems to be the case:
So help me understand the difference between the label and the model.
Moreover, the model can be managed but the label can only be set when
the constructor is called?
Following one of the examples, I was doing this:
selbx.add(new qx.ui.form.ListItem("Foo"));
selbx.add(new qx.ui.form.ListItem("Bar"));
selbx.add(new qx.ui.form.ListItem("For Good"));
This essentially becomes useless without seeing the model property.
Also, if the label is specified like this where is it stored? there is
no label property, yet it does show up in the select box drop down.
Do you understand the source of my confusion? If my interpretation of
the docs and your example is correct then it does not really make sense
that the value can be manipulated but the label cannot, does it?
