Is There A Max Question Choice Limit On A Select Box?

Is there a max number of Question Choices that can be added to a Select Box? I have 11 choices and only 10 will show up when I click the select box. 

I've seen potential answers that say to adjust glide.xmlhttp.max_choices (has a max of 15) or glide.ui.max_ref_dropdown (has a max of 25), but since these are higher than the limit of 10 that I am currently experiencing, I don't believe those are the answers.

I figured out what was going on. Apparently I had set the question text to two different items, but then I accidentally set the value on both of those items to the same value. So that explains why one was not showing up in the list. After correcting this, all 11 items show in the list now.

Hi,

I definitely know there can be more than 10. I would double-check that you don't have any client scripts or UI policies hiding any choices. Also, there are times where the cache needs to be cleared in order for choices to show up (if an upgrade previously or a few deletions and additions within that field have taken place).

Please type: cache.do in the left-hand navigation and press enter to reset your cache.

Thanks for the response Allen. This is a new record producer that I'm working on, so there aren't any UI policies or client scripts tied to it yet. Running cache.do did not change this behavior.

Alright.

As far as the 10 that show up...in the order that you have them, is it random as to which one doesn't show up? Or is it literally the 11th selection?

Can you try swapping that 11th selection with another (so the one outside 10 is now like #3 and #3 is now 11). So does that 11th choice not show now?
