String manipulation of Enum Values

0
I have a list of months as an enum, in the design we would only like to show the first 3 letters. like this:   in the css we are able to cut off based on characters, but this only works with monopsace fonts, some letters are cut off in wierd spots: the SASS:   So I was wondering if there was a Mendix solution to somehow change the enum (im guessing there must be something in place for translations or something we might be able to use?)

Hi Jason Teunissen,

 

Do you need your ENUM to have complete month letters, why don’t you have your ENUM caption with the first 3 letters of the months?

 

Thanks!

Or use a microflow to retrieve the cutoff name. Use substring on the getcaption of the enum to just retrieve the first three characters.

Regards,

Ronald
