Re: multi-select dropdown menus?

I use OSControls Xtra for doing exactly this. Once you learn how to use the Xtra, this is very easily done, and the Xtra is easy to learn. You'll only need to learn how to use their popup menu.

Hey all:

Sorry if this ends up being a really stupid question -- I'm under the
gun right now.

I am trying to get a dropdown box working for a project that's due TODAY
which supports multiple selections, toggling on/off whatever you
selected and spitting the value(s) into a simple linear list. I don't
have time to roll my own nor start learning imaging lingo in order to
get the one on lingoworkshop up and running.  That one does what I want
and looks great, but as soon as you try to resize the sprite, it goes to
hell because it uses imaging lingo instead of a text or field member
like a normal person.  ;)

I need something quick and dirty that works without me having to do a
massive retrofit -- I just don't have time to deal with it.  One would
think this would have been solved long ago, but I've been scouring the
web to little avail.  I have about a half-dozen different examples from
here and there, each with one fatal flaw or another.  Even the wonderful
OS Control Xtra has every widget imaginable -- except this one!

Any help appreciated.

best,
FBC
