The Dropdown element in Procesio Forms functions as an action menu trigger rather than a selection input — it is a button-like component that expands to reveal a list of actions or navigation items when clicked. Think of it as a grouped action toolbar: a single compact control that exposes multiple related operations without cluttering the form surface.
It supports an extensive icon library (Material Icons), allowing each dropdown entry to be visually identified at a glance. Like all elements in Procesio Forms, its label, icon, visibility, and interactivity are fully controllable via the data model at runtime — useful for showing context-sensitive action sets based on the current state of a record or process.
Key Use Cases
• Grouping related actions (View, Edit, Delete) under a single button to save space
• Dynamically updating available actions based on user role or record status at runtime
• Providing contextual navigation options (e.g., Open Related Task, View History)
• Implementing overflow menus in compact form layouts
