I am attempting to add a Drop-Down Element to my form but when I try to edit the Labels for the Options, I am unable to do so.

I can highlight Option 1, for instance, but when I try to type over it nothing happens. Unfortunately, I don't see any other place to edit the Labels.

I do see there is a Predefined Options Selector and that will come in handy eventually but this is a specialized form.

I must be missing something. Can someone help me out?

Just double-click on Option1 and your cursor will appear inside of that box. This is where you change that text.

How easy is that! :)

It's easy, but how would one know to double click unless they read this thread?

That is a pretty standard windows function Stephen.

I don't think that is a standard windows text editing funtion at all, Scott.

It's fine the way it is. It's just that it is not as intuitive as you think. Perhaps, adding a word or sentence or two in the Help file to "Step 6: Adding a Drop-Down Menu" to clear things up would be helpful.

I'd like to mention that this was really getting me ticked off until I found this thread! It was not self evident to me that all you needed to do was double click. And I've been using windows for about 20 years.

I would think a single click would be better.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

This was an issue with me as well. Took way too long to figure out one had to double click it.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
