List/Menu properties

To display list/menu properties in the Property inspector, select a list or pop-up menu in a form. See also About lists and menus.

List/Menu assigns a name to the list or menu. This field is required, and the name must be unique.

Type indicates whether the object is a pop-up menu or a scrolling list. For a list, you can set the height (the number of items displayed at once) and indicate whether the user can select multiple items from the list.

List Values opens the Initial List Values dialog box so you can add items to the list or pop-up menu. Each item in the list has a label (the text that appears in the list) and a value (the value that's sent to the processing application if the item is selected). If no value is specified, the label is sent to the processing application instead.

Use the Plus (+) and Minus (-) buttons to add and remove items in the list. Items are in the same order as in the Initial List Values dialog box. The first item on the list is the selected item when the page is loaded in a browser. Use the up and down arrow buttons to rearrange items in the list.
