Description

Greetings,

I have utilized the exposed dropdown menu functionality, and I am currently exploring options for overriding the selected dropdown view. Specifically, I am interested in customizing the display of the selected item to include both an icon and accompanying text. While I have successfully overridden the dropdown view, I have yet to implement the desired customization for the selected view. Currently, it returns an object in the format of "Object(icon=222, name=test)".

I would appreciate any guidance or assistance in achieving this customization.

Thank you for your attention to this matter
