I need to add a picker field to my application where I can select from a set of predefined entries but the field should be a text field where you can also enter custom text that is not part of the predefined entires. So the picker just selects a value for the ease of use and writes it in the text field (string).
I did not find such a component and was wondering if we can create such a component with CUBA and use it in screens by using it in the layout xml?
You can basically capture custom entries and then store the corresponding value in a string field. The initial options you can load when the screen loads and add to the options list.
