The Tree Dropdown labeling tool allows you to ask labelers to pick leaves and trees from complex, nested tree structures.
Two types of this tool exist: multiple and single selection. Single selection tree dropdowns let users only pick one option, while the multiple selection allows users to pick multiple options at once.
From the project’s Settings tab, enter the Label Set section.
Click on Add Category. From the list that appears, click on Tree Dropdown.
A new row will appear named Tree Dropdown. Click on it to expand it.

Required: Toggle this to make is to that labelers have to answer this classification before saving.
Frame-specific: For video assets, determine whether the answer to this classification apply to the whole video or to each individual frame only. Toggling will make it frame-specific.
Show Dropdown: Normally, trees are shown embedded within the classification tool and are immediately, fully visible to annotators. Toggling this option will make it so that to see the tree, annotators will have to click on an area, and as a result of the click the tree will show as a "dropdown". This can especially be useful for larger trees.
