How to specify possible values for custom fields

Hi there,

I'm trying to add some custom fields, but don't know how to specify possible values for some types such as list, checkbox, etc.

For example, if I'd like to add a list object with "Created" and "Reviewed" as selection items, what seperator I should use in the Possible Values edit field?

I've tried ",", ";", and "+"; and none of them worked.

Thanks,

Paul

Have you tried with the on line help ?

Anyway we have used same logic than Mantis => use | (pipe)

Try the pip "|" character. It's working for me.

1. try to create a custom field
2. click on the ? icon on the upper left corner

let me know if you got some help html page

For multiple Checkboxes, use also |

example:
type checkbox
values: Great|Poor|Good|None

this will display 4 check boxes

seem like i´m indeed dumb as a bag of ammers, i ignored the help icon.
anyway, when choosing german as language, the pop up is anyway, which makes me feel a bit less stupid

thanks for the hint
