I'm reformulating my question as the problem is evolving:
do we have an object that
- Displays and holds a text value (like Symbol or Message box),
- is Graph-on-Parent,
- can be resized (like Number2)? (or small enough by default?)

Something like a Number2 for symbols...? Or a settable comment...?

Thanks,

András

Hi List,

I'm trying to switch from oldstyle dropdown combo box (toxy/widget popup) to tof/plist which is a nice dropdown menu except it has no placeholder, but the menu appears wherever when sent a bang.
My question is: do we have an object that
- Displays and holds a text value (like Symbol or Message box),

- emits a bang when clicked?

It doesn't have to be Vanilla.

Thanks,
