Get text value from dropdown

When you have a dropdown with name and value is there a way to get the name into a formula?

You're looking for this??


Click the gear and set it to "text with tags". Then put the areas you want to pull from in [brackets].

My dropdown is set like below:


The dropdown will show the numbers, the callout of the dropdown [dropdownName] will call out the value.

the " is in front of it because if a pipe size is added, it would show 2". that's not from the dropdown.

I cannot see from the video as it moves a bit quick but have you also got the right hand column from your dropdown showing up in a field?
