pyui.create_combo_box - pytha-3d-cad/pytha-lua-api GitHub Wiki

Create a combo box where the user can either select a predefined option from a list or enter a custom text. Use insert_control_item to populate the drop list with options and reset_content to clear both the text and drop list. Call set_control_selection or set_control_text to initialize the text that is displayed in the control.
