When should you not use a dropdown?
In General, Avoid Drop-Downs When There Are More Than 10 or Fewer Than 5 Options. Drop-downs quickly become difficult for users when they are presented with an overwhelming number of options to choose from. Take, for instance, a commonly included input in checkout forms, the “Country Selection” drop-down.
What is the disadvantage of dropdown?
A disadvantage of dropdown lists are that they require a click to reveal the options inside. Other disadvantages of dropdown lists include: They're subject to overstuffing and can be cumbersome to scroll through when they contain too many options. They slow users down when they're used to capture readily known values.
Under what circumstances would you use a drop down menu vs a tab menu?
Tab is for navigation, drop-down is for input.
What is the difference between dropdown and multiselect dropdown?
Multi select dropdown list is used when a user wants to store multiple values for the same record, whereas dropdown list is used to store a single value for a record.
