Option list

The option list component is an internal component, and hence cannot be used in the builder. It is used as configuration component in the builder however.

Option list in the builder

For components involving multiple predefined options, an option list is presented allowing you to fill in the options the user is allowed to choose from. For each option, there are three settings to configure:

• Name: The name of the options. This is a technical name that can be used for e.g. conditions and overviews, and hence should only consist of lowercase letters, numbers and underscores. If the names are not important, the default names option_1, option_2, et cetera are perfectly fine to use. For more information on names, please refer to the terminology.
• Title: The title of the option. This is the text that is presented to the user. When using multiple locales, you can enter a different text for each locale.
• Checkbox: The checkbox often indicates whether the option is a default option, i.e. whether it is choosen by default or not.

Both the name and checkbox may be absent from the option list, depending on the particular needs of the component.

Technical details

The option list allows the user to provide multiple options in multiple locales. Besides a name and localized title, a checkbox can be utilized to provide a toggle for default options.
