APEX 19.2: Popup LOV Trim spaces for search

Kevin ZhangApr 6 2020 — edited Apr 7 2020

Hi All:

I am using APEX 19.2. This is a question regarding item whose type is "Popup LOV".

For the search dialog of Popup LOV, users typically copy and paste a text string into the dialog and search the result. lots of time, user also included leading/trailing space when copying text string. However, in such case, I found Apex 19.2 out of box there is no feature to auto trimming spaces (leading/trailing). Because of it, the search didn't return any result. After I remove space (in below demo, I removed leading space), then search result will appear.

This will generate lots of user confusion for using Popup LOV dialog.

Not sure if future APEX will address this issue or not. Anyone can offer a solution to automatically trim spaces when searching in Popup LOV?

Thank you!

Kevin
