boîte combinée


Explanation:
Si cela s'adresse à des programmeurs, on peut rajouter la première fois le nom du widget entre parenthèses (combobox), car c'est l'appellation la plus utilisée oralement !

Et si l'on n'aime pas "boîte" (ce qui est mon cas, en fait), on peut utiliser "zone de liste modifiable", ou même "liste modifiable", ce qui semble suffire dans ce contexte.

L'idée de la combobox est d'offrir, en plus de la sélection dans une liste, la possibilité de saisir une autre valeur. Cela dit, dans ce contexte, je me demande si ce sont vraiment des combobox? Peut-être une simple liste de sélection, en fait.
