Drop List Control
Description
The Drop List Control defines a drop list of selectable values. The drop-list is displayed when you send a trigger to the Open input. The drop-
list closes when you select an item from the list.
You can decide whether to check an item in the list, usually to show the current selection. You can also choose the style of the list when
there are too many items to show vertically on the screen. The default (if you leave the style blank) is “AutoCol” this will split the list into
vertical columns. You can also specify the exact number of items per column manually by using a number for the style.
The other option for style is “Scroll” - this will maintain a single column but with scroll buttons at either end to scroll through the list.
For a good example of how the Drop List control works have a look inside the Selector control module in the toolbox.
