Column does not show as selectable

I have gone out of the app multiple times.
The RFT3 lookup shows in the Users table, but is not selectable in the dropdown for a RichText.
In the main table, it’s the same data type as RFT2, which shows up in the selection.

It’s an array which you can tell because of the bubble surrounding it. If it’s coming from a relation, it needs to be a single relation. Otherwise, the lookup is looking directly at the table instead of a single relation, so the result will always be an array.

Thanks for the swift reply Jeff. Not sure what you mean “the bubble surrounding it”. It is exactly the same data type (lookup) that RFT1 and RFT2 are – it was “duplicated” from RFT2. And, yes, it is a single relation:

Here it is with my “Spanish” checkbox checked…

Look at the Lookup columns. Notice RTF3 has a bubble around the values while RTF1 and RTF2 don’t. That means it’s an array. Check the configuration of the RTF3 Lookup column compared to the others. Something is different. Probably using the table directly instead of the relation.

Well, I went back in and made sure it was selecting using the relation instead of the table directly. That worked. Thank you. But I still do not see the “bubble”. Can you screenshot and circle what you mean?

Thanks!

Notice the light grey bubble effect in RTF3 whereas RTF1 does not have that bubble effect.

If you still don’t see it, your screen contrast may be off. Try viewing this image on a different monitor or on your phone.

I see it. I was looking at the column name not at the column data. Thank you.
