noEntryText attribute for ComboBoxes won't apply for Custom Fields? - rally

Question

I'm currently working with comboboxes and filters to implement an option to select all instances of a desired field. With that said, I know to use the noEntryText attribute to set what originally defaults to "--No Entry--" as "All". However, the changes do not seem to apply when I use this on custom fields provided by my Web Services API (those fields with the "c_" before them).
Strangely enough though, this convention works for other fields that I use that do not have the "c_" before them. So is this a known defect just for custom fields or is there a workaround to this issue?

Answer 1

I filed a defect that replacing noEntryText to a custom value works for rallyfieldvaluecombobox for standard fields, but not custom fields.
If rallyfieldvaluecombobox uses a standard field, e.g. Environment, then no entry can be replaced successfully:
Here is the js file:
Ext.define('CustomApp', {
extend: 'Rally.app.App',
componentCls: 'app',
launch: function() {
this.add({
xtype: 'rallyfieldvaluecombobox',
itemId: 'aBox',
fieldLabel: 'Filter by filed:',
model: 'defect',
//field: 'c_CustomBox',
field: 'Environment',
noEntryText: 'All',
useNullForNoEntryValue: true,
allowNoEntry: true,
listeners: {
select: this._onSelect,
ready: this._onLoad,
scope: this
}
});
},
_onLoad: function() {
this.add({
xtype: 'rallygrid',
columnCfgs: [
'FormattedID',
'Name',
//'c_CustomBox'
'Environment'
],
context: this.getContext(),
storeConfig: {
model: 'defect',
filters: [this._getStateFilter()]
},
width: 500
});
},
_getStateFilter: function() {
if (!this.down('#aBox').getValue()) {
return 1;
}
else{
return {
//property: 'c_CustomBox',
property: 'Environment',
operator: '=',
value: this.down('#aBox').getValue()
};
}
},
_onSelect: function() {
var grid = this.down('rallygrid'),
store = grid.getStore();
store.clearFilter(true);
store.filter(this._getStateFilter());
}
});
If the same rallyfieldvaluecombobox uses a custom field, then no entry string cannot be replaced:
In both cases the functionality of replacing the filtering behavior works fine.
