An example for a drop-down menu with a warning:
...
Use when:
The options list is small-medium in size.
Space is constrained.
Use the searchable type when:
there are more than 15 options.
when users are expected to know what they are looking for, and are likely to be aware of how the option is labelled.
Don’t use when:
The list has fewer than 3 options.
The list has fewer than 7 options and the user needs to see them all at once. Use radio buttons or Check boxes instead.
The user needs to enter a value which is not in the list. Use a combo box instead.
The list is large. Use Dual List Selector or List instead.
General:
Only show a scrollbar when the list has over 8 items.
Keep the text values as short as possible, because the list uses single lines only.
The option list should adapt its length to the longest entry by default, but values that are too long may be truncated, with a tooltip displaying the full text (not recommended). The option list may not have a horizontal scroll.
Place options that represent All or None at the beginning of the list, regardless of the sort order of the remaining items.
Do not allow the control to auto-adjust based on the selection.
If there’s no label, or if the label is not indicative enough, the selected item type should be added within the drop-down, after the number of selections:
