Examples

With disabled items

You can add special styles to disabled items via the data-disabled attribute.

import { styled } from '@stitches/react';
import * as Select from '@radix-ui/react-select';

const StyledItem = styled(Select.Item, {
  '&[data-disabled]': { color: 'gainsboro' },
});

export default () => (
  <Select.Root>
    <Select.Trigger>…</Select.Trigger>
    <Select.Content>
      <Select.Viewport>
        <StyledItem disabled>…</StyledItem>
        <StyledItem>…</StyledItem>
        <StyledItem>…</StyledItem>
      </Select.Viewport>
    </Select.Content>
  </Select.Root>
);

With separators

Use the Separator part to add a separator between items.

<Select.Root>
  <Select.Trigger>…</Select.Trigger>
  <Select.Content>
    <Select.Viewport>
      <Select.Item>…</Select.Item>
      <Select.Item>…</Select.Item>
      <Select.Item>…</Select.Item>
      <Select.Separator />
      <Select.Item>…</Select.Item>
      <Select.Item>…</Select.Item>
    </Select.Viewport>
  </Select.Content>
</Select.Root>

With grouped items

Use the Group and Label parts to group items in a section.

<Select.Root>
  <Select.Trigger>…</Select.Trigger>
  <Select.Content>
    <Select.Viewport>
      <Select.Group>
        <Select.Label>Label</Select.Label>
        <Select.Item>…</Select.Item>
        <Select.Item>…</Select.Item>
        <Select.Item>…</Select.Item>
      </Select.Group>
    </Select.Viewport>
  </Select.Content>
</Select.Root>

With complex items

You can use custom content in your items.

import { styled } from '@stitches/react';
import * as Select from '@radix-ui/react-select';

const Image = styled('img', {
  width: 24,
  height: 24,
});

export default () => (
  <Select.Root>
    <Select.Trigger>…</Select.Trigger>
    <Select.Content>
      <Select.Viewport>
        <Select.Item>
          <Select.ItemText>
            <Image src="…" />
            Adolfo Hess
          </Select.ItemText>
          <Select.ItemIndicator>…</SelectItemIndicator>
        </Select.Item>
        <Select.Item>…</Select.Item>
        <Select.Item>…</Select.Item>
      </Select.Viewport>
    </Select.Content>
  </Select.Root>
);

Controlling the value displayed in the trigger

By default the trigger will automatically display the selected item ItemText's content. You can control what appears by chosing to put things inside/outside the ItemText part.

If you need more flexibility, you can control the component using value/onValueChange props and passing children to SelectValue. Remember to make sure what you put in there is accessible.

const countries = { france: '🇫🇷', 'united-kingdom': '🇬🇧', spain: '🇪🇸' };

export default () => {
  const [value, setValue] = React.useState('france');
  return (
    <Select.Root value={value} onValueChange={setValue}>
      <Select.Trigger>
        <Select.Value aria-label={value}>
          {countries[value]}
        </Select.Value>
        <Select.Icon />
      </Select.Trigger>
      <Select.Content>
        <Select.Viewport>
          <Select.Item value="france">
            <Select.ItemText>France</Select.ItemText>
            <Select.ItemIndicator>…</SelectItemIndicator>
          </Select.Item>
          <Select.Item value="united-kingdom">
            <Select.ItemText>United Kingdom</Select.ItemText>
            <Select.ItemIndicator>…</SelectItemIndicator>
          </Select.Item>
          <Select.Item value="spain">
            <Select.ItemText>Spain</Select.ItemText>
            <Select.ItemIndicator>…</SelectItemIndicator>
          </Select.Item>
        </Select.Viewport>
      </Select.Content>
    </Select.Root>
  );
};

With custom scrollbar

The native scrollbar is hidden by default as we recommend using the ScrollUpButton and ScrollDownButton parts for the best UX. If you do not want to use these parts, compose your select with our Scroll Area primitive.

import { styled } from '@stitches/react';
import * as Select from '@radix-ui/react-select';
import * as ScrollAreaPrimitive from '@radix-ui/react-scroll-area';

const ScrollArea = styled(ScrollAreaPrimitive.Root, {
  width: '100%',
  height: '100%',
});

const ScrollAreaViewport = styled(ScrollAreaPrimitive.Viewport, {
  width: '100%',
  height: '100%',
});

const ScrollAreaScrollbar = styled(ScrollAreaPrimitive.Scrollbar, {
  width: 4,
  padding: '5px 2px',
});

const ScrollAreaThumb = styled(ScrollAreaPrimitive.Thumb, {
  background: 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3)',
  borderRadius: 3,
});

export default () => (
  <Select.Root>
    <Select.Trigger>…</Select.Trigger>
    <Select.Content>
      <ScrollArea type="auto">
        <Select.Viewport asChild>
          <ScrollAreaViewport>
            <StyledItem>…</StyledItem>
            <StyledItem>…</StyledItem>
            <StyledItem>…</StyledItem>
          </ScrollAreaViewport>
        </Select.Viewport>
        <ScrollAreaScrollbar orientation="vertical">
          <ScrollAreaThumb />
        </ScrollAreaScrollbar>
      </ScrollArea>
    </Select.Content>
  </Select.Root>
);

Accessibility

Adheres to the ListBox WAI-ARIA design pattern.

See the W3C Select-Only Combobox example for more information.

Keyboard Interactions

Key	Description
`Space`	When focus is on `Select.Trigger`, opens the select and focuses the selected item. When focus is on an item, selects the focused item.
`Enter`	When focus is on `Select.Trigger`, opens the select and focuses the first item. When focus is on an item, selects the focused item.
`ArrowDown`	When focus is on `Select.Trigger`, opens the select. When focus is on an item, moves focus to the next item.
`ArrowUp`	When focus is on `Select.Trigger`, opens the select. When focus is on an item, moves focus to the previous item.
`Esc`	Closes the select and moves focus to `Select.Trigger`.

Labelling

Use our Label component in order to offer a visual and accessible label for the select.

import * as Select from '@radix-ui/react-select';
import { Label } from '@radix-ui/react-label';

export default () => (
  <>
    <Label>
      Country
      <Select.Root>…</Select.Root>
    </Label>

    {/* or */}

    <Label htmlFor="country">Country</Label>
    <Select.Root>
      <Select.Trigger id="country">…</Select.Trigger>…
    </Select.Root>
  </>
);

Custom APIs

Create your own API by abstracting the primitive parts into your own component.

Abstract down to `Select` and `SelectItem`

This example abstracts most of the parts.

Usage

import { Select, SelectItem } from './your-select';

export default () => (
  <Select defaultValue="2">
    <SelectItem value="1">Item 1</SelectItem>
    <SelectItem value="2">Item 2</SelectItem>
    <SelectItem value="3">Item 3</SelectItem>
  </Select>
);

Implementation

// your-select.js
import React from 'react';
import * as SelectPrimitive from '@radix-ui/react-select';
import {
  CheckIcon,
  ChevronDownIcon,
  ChevronUpIcon,
} from '@radix-ui/react-icons';

export const Select = React.forwardRef(
  ({ children, ...props }, forwardedRef) => {
    return (
      <SelectPrimitive.Root {...props}>
        <SelectPrimitive.Trigger ref={forwardedRef}>
          <SelectPrimitive.Value />
          <SelectPrimitive.Icon>
            <ChevronDownIcon />
          </SelectPrimitive.Icon>
        </SelectPrimitive.Trigger>
        <SelectPrimitive.Content>
          <SelectPrimitive.ScrollUpButton>
            <ChevronUpIcon />
          </SelectPrimitive.ScrollUpButton>
          <SelectPrimitive.Viewport>{children}</SelectPrimitive.Viewport>
          <SelectPrimitive.ScrollDownButton>
            <ChevronDownIcon />
          </SelectPrimitive.ScrollDownButton>
        </SelectPrimitive.Content>
      </SelectPrimitive.Root>
    );
  }
);

export const SelectItem = React.forwardRef(
  ({ children, ...props }, forwardedRef) => {
    return (
      <SelectPrimitive.Item {...props} ref={forwardedRef}>
        <SelectPrimitive.ItemText>{children}</SelectPrimitive.ItemText>
        <SelectPrimitive.ItemIndicator>
