Good day to you all.

I am trying to find a way to have a drop-down lookup attached
to an attribute in a block.

Electric switch, Type: one gang, Two gang, Three gang … etcOr

Room: Living room, Kitchen, Bathroom… etc 

I can type these in as a type of room name in the Edit Attributes
box but spelling mistakes or extra space / full stop will mean that it is in a separate
column when Extract Data is performed. A drop down will avoid this. There are a
number of instances with a switch where there are different options. So this
would be a really useful ability for me and I’m hoping others. I have used look
up with the stretch state on Linear for doors and windows and  

I have thought of having and invisible numbers which can be
chosen but haven’t got my head around that yet and visibility states do not
extract.

Here’s Trilled to look forward to getting a solution.

All the best
