ComboBox
When selecting a Combobox parameter type, a modal dialog is displayed asking the user to further configure the parameter.
A ComboBox type parameter allows single value selection in Start Workflow form.

For example, if strings will be used, the the argument should be an String[] type.
When checking the Is ListView option, user may also add limitations for minimum/maximum selected items. Only positive numeric values are accepted. If other values are inserted, a validation message will prevent user from saving the configuration. If left empty, no limitation validation will be applied for the parameter.
NOTES:
- when minimum/maximum selected values are used in addition to preselected values, if the number of preselected values exceeds the number of maximum values, Portal validation for minimum/maximum selected items will be applied when Start Workflow windows is opened but no item will be automatically unchecked
- if the parameter is optional, Portal validation for minimum/maximum selected items will NOT be applied
