Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a way to activate a "Clear button" for a drop down list in app designer (Similar to the one in the attached pincture" but I can't find it. This probably was asked before but I didn't find a similiar question.

Thanks in advance.

I'm not entirely sure what the goal is but if you'd like to give your app users the option to easily select an emply item in your listbox, you could include an empty item as Rik mentioned and then add a uibuttone next to the dropdown that merely selects the empty item.
If the goal is to clear the dropdown list entirely, you could use a button as I've described above and set its callback function to clear the list or you could include a "clear all" option within the dropdown list that, when selected, clears the entire list (except for the clear-all option).
