This one is sort of related to my earlier post of populating a numbercontrol with reference to the content of a related stringcontrol.

What I would like to do is, have FG provide me with a list of choices to select from when clicking on a particluar heading.
E.g. If I click to enter data for the races field, a list will appear, which I can select from.

Each item on this list will be asociated with a numeric value which will be inserted into another related field.
E.g. I select Dwarf, and the bonus field of the combat section will be modified.

Can this be done?

I'm fairly sure it can't be done.

When Version 2.0 comes out after gencon, we might have that option.

Just posting to confirm that this isn't possible in the current version, as there isn't a dropdown menu function. As Mouse said, look for this in v2. I'd be surprised if it wasn't added.

I kind of achieved what I wanted. I just followed earlier advice, and created png for the contents of the list, then assigned a multistate to the field, that would call up the relevant png when clicked. Works a treat.
