Google _drop down menu Thunkable_ and you’ll find examples of this from me and other contributors here. ---

Ive managed to solve the problem of creating the drop down menu. But im hit with a new problem. There are some more text boxes in the area where the drop down menu covers when its expanded. When i click the drop down menu, select what i want and then try to enter the values in the below text boxes i am now inable to click them. Its as if the invisible list is covering the textboxes below. How do i solve this? ---

You may just need to move the Text Inputs above the List Viewer in the component tree (left sidebar) of the Design tab. Can you share a link to your project? ---

Where is the “if” within an “if”? You have to realize you may have been staring at those blocks for hours but I’m new to them so it doesn’t immediately make sense to me. ---

I’m going to close this since you already started a [new topic](https://community.thunkable.com/t/a-message-need-to-be-shown-based-on-certain-criteria-what-am-i-doing-wrong/3187349). You should only have one topic about an issue. Otherwise, it’s both confusing and time-consuming for people trying to help you. ---
