That's it! I did it a few weeks ago and I just forgot how I did it. Thanks for reminding me!

Just a suggestion: how about having the Add New be the default selection when looking at a dropdown's properties so you see the actions for the event, as opposed to Text Change. Or maybe have a grid showing existing events so that the user knows one already exists and can select it to view it.

Hi Brett,

When edting a drop down when you get to Step 2 of 5: Dropdown Object Actions you will see an Event drop down, select Add New from that drop down. Adding actions under the Add New event will make <Add New> display at the top of a drop down list.

"Add new" in dropdown for field in a screen

I have this for some fields (dropdowns) and others I do not. This is probably so simple, but how do I get the Add New to show at the top of a field dropdown and automatically pop up the screen to add a new entry?

Thanks,
