POP UP LOV with multiple columns

Is it my imagination or do I HAVE to show the DISPLAY column as one of the additional columns in my LOV?
My display column is the piped string of 3 other columns.
In the pop-up selection, I prefer to show the values in 3 columns (not the concatenated string), but it seems that I have to include the concatenated string....

OK - i figured this out, In the IG for the additional columns, go to single row view, edit, and I can set the DISPLAY COLUMN to not be visible. Meaning, it will be visible as the return display, but not one of the columns in the look up grid.

@User_GP1QN please specify the apex version.

@User_FUZKR - sorry - V 22.1.0

it is now default functionality in PopUp LOV. you can search for it through your browser search engine like google etc. like oracle apex popup lov multiple columns and hope you will find tons of How To's.
here is only one from google search results:
not only you can show multiple columns, you can return multiple values too.
hope i didn't misunderstood your requirement.

I know how to show multiple columns. My question is: Does the DISPLAY COLUMN need to be one of the columns?
When I omit the DISPLAY COLUMN from the "multiple columns", the LOV locks up
-
@User_GP1QN yes, LOV does require the display & return values, both are required fields.
Use Additional columns selection to display multiple columns in LOV.

@USER_FUZKR thank you , but you are still not quite understanding.
I know that the display and return columns are required.
I'm asking: Does the Display column have to be one of the "multiple columns"
I'll just try again with other tables and figure it out
