Original status: 3-Accepted; Suggested Status: NEW Original Target Release: mako_dev; Suggested Target Milestone : Dev Description: The readonly property of the drop down list has been checked. Upon running the application the dropdown list is changeable. The validate method or the process value change methods are not invoked. The auto submit on change feature works though. It would be better to have the dropdown not changeable if its readonly property has been checked, just like the text field which becomes uneditable if its readonly property has been checked. This behaviour was noticed while working on an issue mentioned by a customer in the forum.

Note the dropdown will not appear if readonly is set. In the attached project, I added a button and code to unset Read only and found that when clicking the button the dropdown is visible and usable. Using Standard components, the Standard dropdown doesn't behave as expected. Since the Basic dropdown works, then close as will not fix ?
