The GF_Field_Select class extends the GF_Field<\/a> class, also known as the Field Object<\/a>. This class is responsible for determining how the Drop Down field is rendered when the form is displayed and how its value is handled during and after form submission. This class also handles the rendering of the Product, Product Option, Quantity, Shipping fields when they are a drop down.<\/p>\n Settings control what options are available to the admin user when configuring the field in the form editor. Gravity Forms includes many built-in settings such as Field Label, Field Description, Choices, Conditional Logic, etc. In addition to built-in settings, custom settings can also be developed. For more information on how to develop custom settings and how to associate settings to a field, visit the GF_Field page<\/a>.<\/p>\n Properties contain the values specified by the settings and generally are part of the Field Object<\/a>.<\/p>\n The properties may be retrieved by accessing the Field Object<\/a> as follows:<\/p>\n The following settings are available for the field:<\/p>\n choices_setting<\/strong> conditional_logic_field_setting<\/strong> css_class_setting<\/strong> default_value_setting<\/strong> description_setting<\/strong> duplicate_setting<\/strong> enable_enhanced_ui_setting<\/strong> error_message_setting<\/strong> label_setting<\/strong> placeholder_setting<\/strong> prepopulate_field_setting<\/strong> rules_setting<\/strong> size_setting<\/strong> visibility_setting<\/strong> Below is a listing of the properties inherited from the parent class and ones unique to the field.<\/p>\n The label to be used on admin pages instead of the label, useful for fields with long labels.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n adminOnly<\/strong> boolean<\/a><\/p>\n Determines whether the field is visible to the user submitting the form, or only visible in the admin.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n allowsPrepopulate<\/strong> boolean<\/a><\/p>\n Determines if the field values can be dynamically populated.
