I'm agree with remaining participates, may be below code will help you
a!columnLayout(
contents: {
a!dropdownField(),
a!dropdownField(
showWhen: if(condition=true, show input, don't show input)
),
a!dropdownField()

People have given you an better answer to your question but i just wanted to add few more easy function by which you can achieve this functionality,
1) You can simply use "If" and conditionally you can show particular value.
2) You can also use showWhen() function to conditionally hide and show value.

In Interface use if condition like
dropdown1,
dropdown2,
if {
Condition s satisfied,
dropdown 3,
{}
}

You can use the showWhen on the third drop down component. Within the showWhen expression, use an if() statement.

if (
/*checking if both conditions are true */
and(ri!selectedFirstConditionsIsTrue, ri!selectedSecondConditionisTrue),
/*show*/
true,
/*otherwise, don't show*/
false
)

Hi chuliangc,
I would like to suggest to use if condition in your case so that you can display the drop down conditionally.

Thanks,
ravalik

Hello
You have to use the showWhen and add if condition in it to pass true or false. and same for other fields.

Thanks

Go to Expression View of Interface
write the if condition like

if(<true>, /*if condition satisfy it will show dropdown else will show nothing*/
a!dropDownField3(/*this will be your dropdown code*/),
{})

Hi chuliangc ,

Please find the below ways if it helps:

1.a!sectionLayout(
label: Cons!SectionLabel_Name,
showWhen: ri!sendingTask/*Condition to check*/
contents: {
Dropdownlist
}
)

2. if(
ri!showWhen,/*Condition to check and put the condition here in ri!Showwhen*/
a!sectionLayout(
label: Cons!SectionLabel_Name,
contents: {
Dropdownlist
}
),
""
)
3.Even dropdownfield has a property of showwhen you can use that well.

a!dropdownField( showWhen:)

Hi, Use if() here to display dropdown accordingly

You can use the if condition or you can also use the showWhen property of dropdown field.

You can use a simple if condition and if the condition is fulfilled then you can show that drop down and otherwise you can just put there a null value.

You're looking for "if"
It is set up:

If(
<condition>
<What do when the condition is true>,
<What do when the condition is false>
)
