Option Selection

Build and style a dropdown, import choices, and set an action for a selection.

Build an Option Selection dropdown

Add choices with Add in the Options list and edit each label. Set an optional Value for the submitted result or a calculation. When no value is specified, the label supplies the result. Use Import to load a plain-text list, such as the countries in the example below.

Use Image to choose the dropdown indicator, including a Custom image. Set Options Menu to Custom to style its background, text, border, corner radius and shadow. You can also set row padding and maximum height, plus separate colors for the highlighted and selected options.

Option Selection inspector with an editable list of choices, selection action, placeholder and label settings.

Country

If you would like to try this for yourself, here is a download link for a countries text file.

The On Selection option is similar to the On Click option of buttons and other links: you can pick an action to perform when the specific option is selected, making the option selection element behave like a menu, or disclosing a layout block or popup containing additional form fields.

Use Save Preset in the Style inspector to reuse this appearance on another control of the same type.

See Forms for configuring submission and delivery.
