Value List (EnumDataType) Duplicates

Value List (EnumDataType) Duplicates

Comments

  • I was going to set up a converter flow to dynamically format an object as a string with a value list of allowed format strings as input. It will not allow both MM/dd/yyyy and MMddyyyy because it is considering them as duplicates.

    Is there any way to override the text in the brackets so that these are not considered duplicates?

  • Hoping to follow up on this post. Any way of doing this?

  • It looks like the issue is actually due to the Value property in the value list does not allow special characters.

    Is there a workaround for this?

  • Any enum value defined in the value list has to be a legal C# identifier. So only alphanumeric characters and an underscore are allowed.
    For your use-case, you might be better off using a Database Structure. This would allow you to create a list of valid formats in the structure and use them as needed.
