Is there a way to disable a dropdown node on the basis of a switch node result?
You can set the dropdown options in msg.options. So you could feed a empty array as msg.options from one sitch node rule/output
e.g.
[{"id":"b0e4145f.4d3e78","type":"inject","z":"bf9e1e33.030598","name":"","props":[{"p":"payload"},{"p":"topic","vt":"str"}],"repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","payload":"1","payloadType":"str","x":140,"y":2440,"wires":[["5e5ea156.28aca8"]]},{"id":"5e5ea156.28aca8","type":"switch","z":"bf9e1e33.030598","name":"","property":"payload","propertyType":"msg","rules":[{"t":"eq","v":"1","vt":"str"},{"t":"eq","v":"2","vt":"str"}],"checkall":"true","repair":false,"outputs":2,"x":290,"y":2460,"wires":[["9322575f.976c28"],["76ffd8ee.d2379"]]},{"id":"fbd80ffb.83ea5","type":"inject","z":"bf9e1e33.030598","name":"","props":[{"p":"payload"},{"p":"topic","vt":"str"}],"repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","payload":"2","payloadType":"str","x":150,"y":2480,"wires":[["5e5ea156.28aca8"]]},{"id":"9322575f.976c28","type":"change","z":"bf9e1e33.030598","name":"","rules":[{"t":"set","p":"options","pt":"msg","to":"[]","tot":"json"}],"action":"","property":"","from":"","to":"","reg":false,"x":480,"y":2440,"wires":[["d16c33a7.cfbce8"]]},{"id":"76ffd8ee.d2379","type":"change","z":"bf9e1e33.030598","name":"","rules":[{"t":"set","p":"options","pt":"msg","to":"[1,2]","tot":"json"}],"action":"","property":"","from":"","to":"","reg":false,"x":480,"y":2480,"wires":[["d16c33a7.cfbce8"]]},{"id":"d16c33a7.cfbce8","type":"ui_dropdown","z":"bf9e1e33.030598","name":"","label":"","tooltip":"","place":"Select option","group":"b9d366f18ff7ae74","order":6,"width":0,"height":0,"passthru":false,"multiple":false,"options":[],"payload":"","topic":"topic","topicType":"msg","className":"","x":680,"y":2460,"wires":[["298f044.73ac97c"]]},{"id":"298f044.73ac97c","type":"debug","z":"bf9e1e33.030598","name":"","active":true,"tosidebar":true,"console":false,"tostatus":false,"complete":"false","statusVal":"","statusType":"auto","x":710,"y":2600,"wires":[]},{"id":"b9d366f18ff7ae74","type":"ui_group","name":"test","tab":"ffba43d73860d25d","order":1,"disp":true,"width":12,"collapse":false},{"id":"ffba43d73860d25d","type":"ui_tab","name":"Level","icon":"dashboard","order":3,"disabled":false,"hidden":false}]
This would effectively disable selection in the dropdown
Thnks a lot.
For disable I mean 'not show' the dropdown node in the UI on the base of a switch node output.
Is there a way?
Then put it in its own tab group and use ui-control node to hide or show
Groups can be hidden and made visible via a msg like {"group":{"hide":["tab_name_group_name_with_underscores"],"show":["tab_name_another_group"],"focus":true}}
Thanks a lot.
So I need to put the dropdown node alone in a group if I want to hide only the dropdown node, right?
How to manage tab name/group name having spaces (e.g. group name = 'Group 5' or 'Group Insert Date')?
tab - one tab
group - one group
would become - one_tab_one_group
But If by the button I need to also switch to another tab ?
I mean, clicking the button I need to go from Tab 1 to Tab 2. and hide a group in Tab2.
Please provide an example flow, so we can see exactly what you are trying.

I made an extraction of a complex flow.
Let consider that I was passing a topic to switch to the other tab.
I tried to add the message as in you example to hide the group of the other tab, but it doesn't work.
Her is an example of switching tabs and hiding and showing groups.
