    New drop downs

    The improvements on the drop fields are great, but we've had some client feedback with a few needed improvements.

    It allows you to type a value that does not exist in the list. 

    For example, on a web to lead form we use the field called lead source. In the placeholder we have the question how did you find out about us. Since the drop-down arrow is not very visible, a customer can type their own notes into the field instead of selecting a value from the drop-down.


    This should either clear the field, or pop up a message.


    There has also been a complaint about needing to go all the way over to the right side of the field to click the drop-down.

    I think the dropdown arrow needs to be more obvious

    Re: New drop downs

    I second this feedback. The drop-down arrow is not obvious enough and clicking in the drop-down should drop it down. Maybe a second click in the text area opens keyboard, or maybe a search button in the drop-down opens it. Either way, if it is not in the list then it should not be accepted.
