Drop-Down

List

Use drop-down lists to

interactively change the value of a

variable by selecting from a list of

values.

Hover over the text displayed in

the drop-down list to see its

current value.

In the Items section, in the Item

Labels field, specify the text that

you want to display for each item

in the drop-down list.

In the Item Values field, specify

the values for each item in the

drop-down line. Make sure to

enclose text values in quotes or

double quotes, because the Live

Editor interprets each item in the

list as code.

Check Box Use check boxes to interactively

set the value of a variable to either

the logical value 1 (true) or the

logical value 0 (false).

The displayed state of the check

box (checked or not checked)

determines its current value.

N/A

Edit Field Use edit fields to interactively set

the value of a variable to any typed

input.

The text displayed in the edit field

and the selected data type

determines its current value.

In the Type section, in the Data

type field, select from the

available options to specify the

data type of the text in the edit

field.
