ComboBox: change text in dropdown

[Mark81]

The displayText property allows to change the visualization of the current item. For example:

ComboBox {
    model: myModel
    displayText: currentText.replace('*','');
}

Now if the item contains a '*' it will be removed. But this happens only when the combo box is closed. I want to do the same also when the dropdown is open. How to do this?

@Mark81 hi,
One way to do that is writing your own delegate for the ComboBox

ComboBox {
        model: ["ds*f","f","ff*f"]
        displayText: currentText.replace('*','');
        delegate:
            Text{
                text : modelData.replace('*','');
            }
    }

or just clean your model before passing it to your ComboBox

Got it. I'm going to follow the second (and more obvious solution) because otherwise I need to rewrite the handling for colors, highlights, etc... I thought there was a way to override just the items' text.
