[CLOSED] Misuse of DropDownField
Not sure how to ask the question, but lets give it a try. I currently have a modal window that is shown to accept user input.
I originally had a user select items from three combo boxes (Fiscal Year, Domain, Category) that were related to each other. This seemed a little clumsy, so I decided to show a TreePanel organized by Fiscal Year, Domain and Category. When they selected one of the child categories I populated the three fields (Better).
Rather then just have the TreePanel showing within the window I decided to use the DropDownField to expose the TreePanel when the user wants to file out the three fields. The only issue with the DropDownField is that I do not need the text field just the trigger icon to show the TreePanel.
So I thought it would it be better to just use a button that shows the TreePanel when pressed, but a button does not have a component section like the DropDownField.
Any suggestions?
