Drop-Down Menu with Custom Item Template

Custom item templates allow you to implement drop-down menu item appearance from scratch, enhance menu item styling, and create complex item layouts. In this demo, a custom template is used to add icons to drop-down menu items.

To customize a drop-down menu item, follow the steps below:

1. Implement a component that renders item markup.
   The component accepts the item configuration object as a prop. You can use its value and text properties to access the item's value to be saved in survey results and display text.

2. Register the component so that it can be accessed by name.
   In HTML/CSS/JavaScript projects, register the component in ReactElementFactory as shown in the index.js file.
   In React, register the component in ReactElementFactory as shown in the SurveyComponent.jsx file.
   In Angular, register the component in AngularComponentFactory as shown in the survey.component.ts file.
   In Vue and Knockout, use techniques native to these libraries:

   • Component Registration in Vue 2
   • Component Registration in Vue 3
   • Component Registration in Knockout

3. Assign the component name to the Dropdown question's itemComponent property in the survey JSON schema.
