Convert an auto field to a select with a right click

Would be useful to convert an auto field component to a select component, after at least 1 run, by right-click-->convert to select

Couldn't agree more.

@BenG actually talked about this in a working session at Inspire this week - and he mentioned that if you run the auto-field once and then drop a select after it then you should be able to achieve exactly what we want.

 

However, I agree with your suggestion and it would be far better if we could right-click and convert once you've run it once.

 

Good idea!

Couldn't agree more.  Thanks for the suggestion.  We will look at this as we make updates to the select tool.
