Select-option multiple selection button is missing

Hello

I had to change the default search help with the "F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST" function module.

But the multiple selection button is now gone.

Am I missing a parameter from the function call? I tried with multiple_choice = 'X' but it didn't work.

My call:

CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
    EXPORTING
      retfield   = 'ZZGEST_CONTR'
      value_org  = 'S'
    TABLES
      value_tab  = lt_gest_contr
      return_tab = lt_return.

The button "multiple selection" is shown only if there's a value help, but it doesn't work for a full ABAP value help, maybe because the custom ABAP code can't be informed if the value help is called from one field or from the button "multiple selection".

The workaround is to create a custom search help and place your custom ABAP code as a search help exit (you can't use F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST inside the exit, you have to rewrite your code differently).
