0042369: Query/List widget with parameters selection like a combo box, problem with selector reference

Description

Client wants to enter the parameters on the widget Query/List as a combo box, but as TableDir is not an option (because of reference validation), OBUISEL_Selector should be reviewed because it doesn’t let you do that purpose neither (when using it the behavior is not the expected one).

Steps To Reproduce

* go to Openbravo livebuilds, role The White Valley Group, add Widget from Manage Workspace menu (main openbravo back office page, at the left) called “Best Sellers”. See that Product Name is a parameter to enter to the query just entering manually a string
* go to Widget window as system administrator. Go to its module and change it to development in order to apply the next changes
* Select in Parameter tab of Widget window Product Name entry. Change the reference field to OBUISEL_Selector Reference. As Reference Search Key enter All Products Simple Selector, also delete the default value on its field. Leave the related module not in development after saving those changes
* go to the main page with The White Valley Group, check that the widget Best Sellers field Product is not working as expected, there is no Combo Box on it searching for products

CHECK RELATED VALIDATION
* change role to System Administrator and go to Windows, Tabs & Fields. Select Widget window, go to Tab tab and select Parameter. Go to its Table “OBUIAPP_Parameter” directly by clicking on its table field link
* go to that table Column tab, then go to column “reference”, see its validation associated (that doesn’t let you select TableDir)

Proposed Solution

The situation of this selector should be reviewed, if openbravo lets you do that, the selector option should work, if not this shouldn’t appear by adding it to the validation too

Notes
(0115978) alostale (manager) 2019-11-29 10:29	The solution for this issue should be implemented by DD 0042448. When defining widget parameters, it is not possible to restrict references available as widget parameters defined in the same DB structure than process definition parameters as it would apply for both cases.

(0116304) alostale (manager) 2019-12-13 09:55	Marking as duplicate of 0042448 as there is no workaround fix for this case unless the whole refactor proposed there is implemented.
