Split button

A split button control has two parts.

The button part (on the left) allows a user to select a default option, or choose a different option. The arrow part (on the right) presents a drop down list of alternatives.

Use the standard control rule SplitButton to present a property as a split button.

• Set the Caption parameter to one value, the label for the button part.
• Set the SplitButton parameter to true.

This control is useful for properties with a Local List or other form a table, when one choice is dominant within a group of a dozen or fewer choices, and the text values are short.

By default, clicking the button or selecting from the drop-down does not submit the form. You may configure client event processing to occur upon click.

For an example of a similar control rule that submits a form following the user selection with a split button, see the similar control rule FindWorkGadget.
