Question

Hi Folks, 
 
 Is there a way to show the value in a dropdown in italics?

Hi, 
 I don't think Appian have that functionality. If you really want to display list of available options in italic use rich text display filed (to display your options) along with an selection Icon or card layout with rich text field.

Good Day Ghanashyam, 
 Appian doesn't support this functionality yet in a drop down component. Alas, you can take your choice labels, and utilize a rich text display field inside of an a!forEach. This will return the desired display for each field. From there, you can utilize these values in another component that could provide similar functionalities as needed. I would definitely mind the size of your list you are utilizing due to the fact that it would be non-performant if your list is too large. 
 Best of luck!
