When an integer MetaProperty has an ActiveList defined, the property is displayed using the existing icon (the same icon applied to properties with a SelectiveList), followed by the property's display string and the label of the currently selected list item in a closed drop-down component.
For editing, the client uses a dropdown menu UI component. The dropdown menu enables users to select exactly one value for the MetaProperty from the ActiveList. When the user opens the dropdown:
- All available options from the ActiveList are displayed as text labels.
- The label for each option is shown in the language configured on the web service. If a translation for the configured language is unavailable, the label is displayed in the default language.
- Each option in the ActiveList has an associated unique integer value that is set to the MetaProperty when selected.
- Only one option can be selected at a time. Selecting an option updates the MetaProperty value immediately.
Sorting of items in the dropdown:
- If all options in the ActiveList have unique sort order values, they are displayed in ascending order of these sort order values.
- If sort orders are not unique, options with the same sort order are sorted in ascending order by their label.
