Can this module be used to bring together multiple values from several different fields (same entity) into a single dropdown select list?
Edit: sorry should have been more specific: I am trying to limit the fields with context eg current user, however, having read your "Known issues" I now see that this is on the agenda already. Apologies

danielb commentedI think so? Depends what you mean by 'values' though.
Comment #2
Glenmoore commentedI am basically trying to reference three or four fields from a user profile in order to give the user a select dropdown box from which he can choose (in this case, a delivery address) from the several he has put into the system. At the moment it is giving me all the values for these fields that exist (ie from all users). I would like for it to give me only the field values from the current user. Is this possible right now?
Comment #3
danielb commentedThat depends on what the relationship between a user and a profile is. I am not familiar with what a profile is exactly.
You can show fields from only the current entity, is that what you mean?
Comment #4
danielb commentedIf that isn't what you want, then yeah the Views feature in the "known issues" thread would solve the problem with the application of a contextual filter.
Not high on my priorities at the moment. Perhaps you could work on something like that, you can probably use code from the References module to help you along, if you are successful please post a patch.
