Python GX: get_user_input with output of project_grids

NickWilliams

I have a get_user_input dialog that prompts the user to pick an existing grid from the project:

        # ask the user to select a grid
        grid_file = gxproj.get_user_input(title='Specify existing TMI grid',
                                        prompt='TMI grid:',
                                        kind='list',
                                        items=project.project_grids,
                                        default=default_grid)

The list usually works fine, but when I run it in a project with a lot of grids (maybe 100?) it displays the first 15 grids, and then only a few characters of the 16th grid path, and no more. Is there a limit to how many items can be included in the pick-list or how many characters?

Hi,

This is likely a bug and will need to be looked into. I made an active issue on Github for it: https://github.com/GeosoftInc/gxpy/issues/112

Can confirm with

ret = gxpj.get_user_input('Testing a list', 'List', kind='list', default='WGS 84 / UTM zone 32N', items=gco.name_list(gco.LIST_COORDINATESYSTEM,datum_filter='WGS 84') )
