paper-dropdown-menu

paper-dropdown-menu is similar to a native browser select element. paper-dropdown-menu works with selectable content. The currently selected item is displayed in the control. If no item is selected, the label is displayed instead. The child element with the class dropdown-content will be used as the dropdown menu. It could be a paper-menu or element that triggers iron-activate when selecting its children. Example:

<paper-dropdown-menu label="Your favourite pastry">
  <paper-menu class="dropdown-content">
    <paper-item>Croissant</paper-item>
    <paper-item>Donut</paper-item>
    <paper-item>Financier</paper-item>
    <paper-item>Madeleine</paper-item>
  </paper-menu>
</paper-dropdown-menu>

This example renders a dropdown menu with 4 options.
