Options-Groups Displaying Dummy Line 1st

If you really want to remove the hyphen you can find the code within 'Options.ascx'. this is within the folder UserControls/General.

The hyphen is added inside the method CreateOption().

You will need to trigger the 'Index Changed' events inside of Options.ascx and OptionsContainer.ascx after you load the items into the options controller each time to ensure that whatever option is displayed in the drop down is also what the back end code thinks is there. this will not be a problem if someone changes the drop down value, but if they leave the default value in there you may have an issue.

The code is always <option value="0">-</option> Tags HTML, Option Groups, options Edited Mon 30 Nov 2015 by shulemj

Why would you want to do this? We put that there for those places where selecting anything may be optional and we want to give the user the ability to select nothing. With the top item removed you could not select nothing. We are always willing to help out the community or pitch in to help you fix a problem. However, if you want a complete solution made such as a code module or new feature added you have two options. Either 1) Reach out to the Kartris internal development team at http://www.kartris.com/Contact.aspx. 2) Contact one of the Kartris approved partners at http://www.kartris.com/t-Worldwide-Developers.aspx. Have fun and good luck coding.
