Cannot dynamically populate a drop down when it is part a dialog

[Steve-Mcl]

Current Behavior

No response

Expected Behavior

Either permit the drop down to be populated before being shown in a dialogue group or update the UI control to emit an event upon showing and closing of a dialog.

Steps To Reproduce

Create a dialog group and add a drop down widget Use an inject to populate the dialog Send a message to the UI control to open the dialog Drop down is empty

My initial thoughts were to use UI control to populate the drop-down, but UI control does not emit an event upon opening of a dialog group
