Hi,
I need to have a combobox with negative values.
I can't seam to make this work, is this by design? or a bug?

I create a combobox, set the values to "-1,0,1" and display values to "Minus,Zero,Plus" and attach it to a NumberColumn.
When I click the combo no values are shown.

Adding "/" before the negative values did the trick.
Thank you Lawrence Fisher for the help.

What I do is to think how I would solve it in Magic and then to the same in Firefly. Often does the trick

Hi,

I have the same issue and came across this thread.
but when I try the suggested solution, it doesn't work for me.
For example:

2025-10-15_00h04_11.png

when I run this, the combobox shows the display values as expected, but the value is 99 and not -99

any help would be appreciated.

Shuki
