This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
A Toolset Form includes a parent post selector, and the dropdown which lists the parent posts is in the format post ID : post title, when all that is required is the post title.
Solution:
This arises in certain circumstances depending on the form in question, but the post ID will be removed in the next update so that only the post title appears.
This is the technical support forum for Toolset - a suite of plugins for developing WordPress sites without writing PHP.
Everyone can read this forum, but only Toolset clients can post in it. Toolset support works 6 days per week, 19 hours per day.

I have added a form field to select the parent post using the new relationship features. I'm trying to follow the instructions on this page, https://toolset.com/documentation/post-relationships/selecting-parent-posts-using-forms-create-child-items/
Everything works great except I don't like how the drop down selector is presenting the choices. It's showing the post id, last name and first name. How do I tell it which fields I want it to show in the drop down selector?
Here's how the Forms field is coded
<div class="form-group"> [cred_field field='@hr-profiles_wtn-document.parent' select_text='Select a Worker' class='form-control wtn-field' output='bootstrap'] </div>
Attached is a screenshot showing how it's displaying the post id, first name and last name
