+'''UIDropDownMenu''' is a [[FrameXML]] Frame template that can be used to create contextual menus and dropdown boxes in World of Warcraft. This tutorial explains how to use it in your addon.
+== Provided functionality ==
+The template can be used to create two UI elements: drop-down lists and context menus, shown below. The differences between the two are mostly cosmetic; both allow a multi-level menu to be displayed to the user.
+{|
+! align="center" | Drop-down list
+! align="center" | Context menu
+|-
+| [[Image:UIDropDownMenu-NoMenu.png]]
+| [[Image:UIDropDownMenu-Menu.png|162px]]
+|}
+Menu items may be disabled, checked, show a color picker swatch, or be styled as a title. The template automatically creates a drop-down box, as well as any list buttons as necessary.
