Use the select cell type to collect user input with an HTML <select> element that creates a multi-item dropdown list.

The select cell type renders a native HTML <select> element. Consider using the dropdown cell type instead for autocomplete and search capabilities.

Overview

The select cell type is a simpler form of the dropdown cell type.

Usage

Note: The select editor is intended as a reference implementation for writing custom editors rather than as a fully-featured editor. It is a much simpler form of the Dropdown editor. Use the dropdown cell type in your projects for a better user experience.

Result

After configuring the select cell type, cells render a native HTML <select> element when the user activates them. The user picks a value from the list and the selected value is written to the data source.
