The Selected Text of a drop down widget in 8.5.2

[SK_9531327]

The selected text of a dropdown widget is not showing up when the service used for the data field (dropdown) is triggered again after the mashup load. I have checked both the services output its working perfectly. I have binded the selected row of the service to a label widget so whenever there is a selected in the dropdown the label gets the data. But when the service for the dropdown is triggered in the middle (example using a button click) the selected text value goes away and the label no longer shows any data. Even if i open the dropdown box and select the same value it wont show up. Only if i change my selected, i can see the data back in the label widget

I think that's a bug in 8.5.2, I have similar use case running fine in 8.4.8 and 9.0. I checked on 8.5.2 and it is working as you described.

Hi,

We also encountered the similar problem with List Widget and I believe it is fixed in TWX version 8.4.9.

Have a look to the release notes Version 8.4.9 Release Notes

Hi-

Sorry but an upgrade is not an option for us any time soon. I have done a work around for this issue myself and it seems to work fine now. I used an expression as a middle layer between the two process. add some extra logic and it worked. 

Thanks.
