PASS-23759
TP4 19.24.0.0 CORR

Fixed an issue where when searching trips by polygon, the list was not sorted which made it difficult to locate the correct polygon.

Now, check boxes are added, which appear when the polygon abbreviations are typed into the Polygon search box. When an abbreviation matches what is typed, it will then appear as a checkbox in a drop-down menu below the search box. Selecting the checkbox of a polygon will then transfer it into an empty field beside the Polygon search box.

You can continue searching for polygons and then clicking its corresponding checkbox to create an ordered comma-delimited list inside the field. Then, click Display and it will show in the grid in the order that you had made it appear in the field.
