 Description  « Hide
Currently the choices is a comma separated string (for variable prompt or Promotion variable prompt). The problem arises when you wish to have a comma in the string value for the user to select. For instance, if you are displaying names and want to display as well as sort by Last Name, First Name; QuickBuild will treat the comma between the last name and first name as an actual comma and therefore the drop down options will present each on a separate line. Even if you use the work around found in QB-2743 which presented the similar issue for repeat parameters. The expectation is that choices would operate similarly in which if you provided

groovy:
return ["a,b", "c,d"]

Then the drop down list would display as

a,b
c,d

Instead of presenting as
a
b
c
d

With QB10 (to be released in the end of this month), this will be possible by writing the option as:

${"a,b\nc,d"}

That is, QB will not split with comma if line breaks are found in the string
