ComboBoxes and ArcMaps for Developers

rmichal

I am attempting a simple exercise, building off a template ESRI's ArcMaps for developers has given me. If anyone is familiar it is the Quick Report Template. That being said I have no experience in Qt QML, I am learning as I go. On this template provided you can report information at location provided by GPS. This information is grabbed from a text box and stored in an online database (ArcMaps Online).

I am attempting to replace the text box with a dropdown menu. So far I've used a combo box and ListModel, It looks like it should work. Dropdown work, and change what they say.
The complication is when I look into the database. Changing my selection with the dropdown does to appear to change the index. I am missing some way to tell the program that it needs to look for List elements.

I can return a single entry from the dropdown into the database by using

currentIndex: 1

So it does access the ListElement, however when I use this every selection, will return this same index. If i do not set currentIndex, I will receive a null value.

My combo box is below.

 ComboBox {
            id: textField
            //currentIndex: 1     
            model: ListModel {
                id: cbItems
                ListElement { text: "StrawBerry"  }
                ListElement { text: "Banana"  }
                ListElement { text: "Apple"  }
                ListElement { text: "Coconut"; }
            }
            width: 300
            anchors {
                bottom: page4_button1.top
                bottomMargin: 2
                horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
            }

            onCurrentIndexChanged: console.debug(cbItems.get(currentIndex).text)

            Component.onCompleted: {
                //listView.onAttributeUpdate(objectName, text)
                if (fieldType != Enums.FieldTypeDate)
                    attributesArray[fieldName] = textField.currentText 
            }

        }

This piece is communicating back to ArcMaps Online

 function onAttributeUpdate(f_name, f_value){
            console.log("Got: ", f_name, f_value, typeof(f_value));
            for(var i=0; i<theFeatureAttributesModel.count; i++) {
                var item = theFeatureAttributesModel.get(i);
                if(item["fieldName"] == f_name) {
                    item["fieldValue"] = f_value;

Thanks in advance!

Did you already resolve this? If not, perhaps it would be simpler if you used a regular js array to add your items to the combo box, instead of using the ListModel?
