How would one go about adding a MODX Combo to a Collections package list as an editor?

So far I have the editor set to: {"xtype":"modx-combo","data":["FR","SO","JR","SR"]} but the data does not show up as options. Is it just not implemented? The TV is a dropdown menu so I'd like to only allow the options contained in the TV to be edited from the list.

I Did not understand what you are doing. But I think the data element is just wrong.
It should be something like that:

        {
            xtype: 'modx-combo'
            , store: new Ext.data.SimpleStore({
                id: 0
                , fields: [{name: 'id'}, 'name']
                , data: [
                      ['FR', 'FR']
                    , ['SO', 'SO']
                    , ['JR', 'JR']
                    , ['SR', 'SR']
                ]
            })
            , triggerAction: 'all'
            , valueField: 'id'
            , displayField: 'name'
            , mode: 'local'
        }

Hi,
form me, your code gives an error:
Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function Ext-all.js:21 [ed. note: vhollo last edited this post 9 years, 10 months ago.]

Is there any update on this issue? I tried setting data: [["value1"],["value2"]] (and few other combinations as well) with no luck, so I wonder is there any way to add modx-combo with your own values to the list?
Just to make it clear: I'm trying to add a dropdown-list for my TV in the Collections view.

I've been noodling on this myself as well for a while. Any one else have a xtype string that is confirmed working? I found this tool https://jsoneditoronline.org/ for stripping out all the whitespace and returns. Collections doesn't like those.
