Spec: DropList question

Is there any way for the Spec DropList, when initially painted, to NOT display the first item in the list.

I'm trying to build a dynamic spec window that uses the droplist value to determine what to paint and I want the user to select the droplist item rather than a default.

Thanks,

You can just provide `nil` as the first option, e.g.

ui := DynamicComposableModel new.

ui instantiateModels: #(select DropListModel).

ui select
        items: #(nil a b c);
        displayBlock: [ :each | each ifNil: [ '' ] ifNotNil: #asString ].

layout := SpecLayout composed
        add: #select.

ui openWithSpecLayout: layout.


And then when querying the value check for nil... e.g.

ui select selectedItem ifNotNil: [ :selected | ... ].
