When you click on a List Viewer item, Thunkable returns two green blocks: **item** (the actual text that is shown for that item) and **index** (the numerical order of the item such as 1 for the first item, 2 for the second item, etc.). I use the **item** to change the top list viewer to whatever is clicked (via a List Viewer containing a list of only one item): ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/6/7/670bea452a0f9d6f689a0015c1a80ca49aa65a76.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/1/7/17ae586fc29ed68c6adff88f77adfc349c41941d.png) And I use the **index** to change the bottom label’s value: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/3/3/33fadc6743ad6ed88500e9fa03554f2dc18f6931.png) You can see the lists at the top of the Blocks screen where I set their initial values. ---

how would you create a drop down list in a simpler way? you still need to load the list,and you have to able to detect which one was chosen. thunkable even gives you 2 ways to detect it - it returns the index and you can use the index to point to another list - or it can return the name of the actual item chosen. ---
