list box

Scrollable choice panel

A list box is a graphical interface element displaying a scrollable list of options from which users can select.

Unlike dropdown menus, list boxes show multiple items at once without requiring a click to expand: Select your country from the list box.

Users may be able to select one item or multiple items depending on implementation.
