Community Tip - Your Friends List is a way to easily have access to the community members that you interact with the most! X
I have a drop down list. I want the value which I select should b set to the property of a thing.
This is covered in intro to Thingworx, which I highly recommend.
Any 'list of information' type widget has its selection tracked in the Data Source. You'll have All Data and Selected Row(s)
Use the Selected Row(s) either full row or individual item to bind to a service which sets the Property value.
Vice Versa you can take a value selected or a value returned from a Service and bind it to such a type of Widget to make it default to a certain value in the list of values in the Widget.
