## Usage
Select (also referred to as a dropdown menu) allows choosing a value from a
fixed list of available options. It is analogous to the native HTML
[`<select>` element](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/select)<!-- {.external} -->.

<!-- no-catalog-end -->
<!-- catalog-include "figures/select/usage.html" -->
```html
<md-outlined-select>
<md-select-option aria-label="blank"></md-select-option>
<md-select-option selected value="apple">
<div slot="headline">Apple</div>
</md-select-option>
<md-select-option value="apricot">
<div slot="headline">Apricot</div>
</md-select-option>
</md-outlined-select>
<md-filled-select>
<md-select-option aria-label="blank"></md-select-option>
<md-select-option value="apple">
<div slot="headline">Apple</div>
</md-select-option>
<md-select-option value="apricot">
<div slot="headline">Apricot</div>
</md-select-option>
</md-filled-select>
```
### Required select
Indicate that a selection is mandatory by adding the `required` attribute.
```html
<md-filled-select required>
<md-select-option value="one">
<div slot="headline">One</div>
</md-select-option>
<md-select-option value="two">
<div slot="headline">Two</div>
</md-select-option>
</md-filled-select>
```
<!--
## Accessibility
*Insert a 1-2 sentence description of a common accessibility scenario, followed
by a code snippet. Do not include a rendered image for accessibility examples.*
```html
<component-name aria-label="Example">
```
*Repeat with additional examples as needed to explain how to make the component
accessible.* -->
## Theming
Select supports
[Material theming](https://github.com/material-components/material-web/blob/main/docs/theming/README.md)<!-- {.external} -->
and can be customized in terms of color, typography, and shape.
### Filled Select tokens
Token | Default value
------------------------------------------------ | -------------
`--md-filled-select-text-field-container-color` | `--md-sys-color-surface-container-highest`
`--md-filled-select-text-field-container-shape` | `4px`
`--md-filled-select-text-field-input-text-color` | `--md-sys-color-on-surface`
`--md-filled-select-text-field-input-text-font` | `--md-sys-typescale-body-large-font`
* [Filled Select tokens](https://github.com/material-components/material-web/blob/main/tokens/_md-comp-filled-select.scss)
<!-- {.external} -->
To theme the select's dropdown menu, use the `md-menu` component tokens on the
`::part(menu)` selector.
