Let don't show the selected value in a dropdown

[agonzalezesteve]

Description 📝

In some situations, like a dropdown menu, is not necessary to show the selected value at first. For example, only showing the icon and, when clicked, show the dropdown with the selected value.

Suggested solution 💡

For example, adding a property like hideValue, that conditionally renders inputLabel.

engine_ui-components/packages/core/src/components/Dropdown/index.ts

Line 310 in f2d0228

>${inputLabel}</bim-label

Hi @agonzalezesteve! Hope you are fine :)

Keeping track of this again.

What you say is easy to implement but having icons in bim-option and the dropdown it-self is not mandatory. It means that if you select an option without an icon and hide the selected value in the dropdown, nothing is going to be shown because the option didn't have an icon in the first place.

I'm not sure if it's ok to leave it like that, as it is a very conditionally-dependant feature.

By now, we are going to stick with the current implementation and come back again if we see a more feasible way to implement it. That is, unless you help us define something that works in all cases :) In that case, you can re-open this issue again without any problem.

Closing this for now!
