Overview
The Labii SelectOption widget allows users to select one value from a custom list of options. It provides the same configuration, data handling, and functionality as the Select widget, but displays all available choices directly in the Edit and Form views instead of placing them inside a dropdown. This layout lets users review and select an option with a single click.
Use case
- Use this widget to select a protocol type from a list that should remain visible.
- Use this widget to define the status of a project when users need to compare all available statuses at a glance.

To enable the widget's functionality, provide a list of options. Each option can include the following fields:
- Dropdown option - The value displayed to users.
- Color - The color used to highlight the option.
- Should include additional input - When enabled, selecting the option displays an additional input field. Do not include
()in the option name.
