You can use the AutoComleteForMendix widget to show multiple attributes in the results of the dropdown

Hi Luke,
An easy way to do this which stays close to native Mendix is to simply store both values 'Description' and 'Acronym' in a CaseTypeDisplayString in the entity CaseType, which is updated in a Before Commit event on CaseType. Could be as simple as {Description} / {Acronym}.
Then, in the NewEdit form for Case, you display the CaseTypeDisplayString in the reference selector for selecting your CaseType.
Kind regards,
Jeffrey
To my knowledge there is no such widget. The way I solved this is by showing two reference selectors. Not ideal but workable.
