Hi @nick ! 👋

Normally, the element should close automatically if the **‘close on select’** option is activated. However, it’s possible that, depending on your element’s configuration and options, this default behavior might be overridden.

If **‘close on select’** doesn’t work, there’s a technique you can use to force the element to remount. You can find the instructions on this page: [How to Reset a Dropdown Element](https://community.weweb.io/t/how-to-reset-a-dropdown-element/5436/3).

In your case, the idea is to trigger this workflow immediately after changing the value of your select.
