Change in Dropdown

[RaamAnalyst]

Use of Dropdown as adjective requires hyphen. However, the style guide document in the link still shows Dropdown list or menu without hyphen.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/d/dropdown

While, in Github repository, corresponding markdown file shows Dropdown with hyphen as Drop-down.
https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/microsoft-style-guide/blob/master/styleguide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/d/drop-down.md

Kindly update the same in the Microsoft Style Guide document.

Hi there, Thanks for your feedback. The latest EdBoard decision is to use dropdown without a hyphen, and that is why the Microsoft Writing Style Guide has been updated accordingly in both versions (azure and github). ***@***.***D7678A.B45EF9F0] Would you mind pointing me to the instance where dropdown is still written with a hyphen? I cannot find it. Thanks!

Hi
If you check the markdown file in the following link, it shows Dropdown with hyphen as Drop-down
https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/microsoft-style-guide/blob/master/styleguide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/d/drop-down.md

I have updated the markdown file and created a pull request.
