Customize the width of the popup using the PopupWidth property. The default value of the PopupWidth is 100%. If popup width unspecified, it sets based on the width of the DropdownList component.

In the following sample, the PopupWidth is set as 300px.

  • CSHTML
  • @using Syncfusion.Blazor.DropDowns;
    
    <SfDropDownList  TValue="string" TItem="Games" Placeholder="Select a game" DataSource="@LocalData" PopupWidth="300px">
      <DropDownListFieldSettings Value="ID" Text="Text"></DropDownListFieldSettings>
    </SfDropDownList>
    
    @code {
        public class Games
        {  
            public string ID { get; set; }
            public string Text { get; set; }
        }
    
        List<Games> LocalData = new List<Games> {
        new Games() { ID= "Game1", Text= "American Football" },
        new Games() { ID= "Game2", Text= "Badminton" },
        new Games() { ID= "Game3", Text= "Basketball" },
        new Games() { ID= "Game4", Text= "Cricket" },
