Overview
A dropdown list is a graphical user interface (GUI) element commonly used in software applications and websites. It presents a list of options that the user can select.
When the user clicks on or interacts with the dropdown box, a list of predefined choices "drops down" or expands, allowing the user to choose one of the available options.
A rectangular box with an arrow or downward-facing triangle on the right side represents the drop-down list. Depending on the design, when the user clicks or hovers over the box, the list of options appears below or above it. The options in the list are displayed in a vertical format, allowing the user to scroll if necessary.
Once the user selects an option from the dropdown list, it becomes the active or chosen value displayed within the box, replacing the default or previous selection. The selected option may trigger certain actions or provide input for further processing.
