So let me get this straight: if a user clicks on an item from the “country_list”, that item appears in the “village_list”?

Could you please show me how you have laid out the Control nodes (for example, the MenuButton, PopupMenu, and ItemList nodes)? I need to know how one list flows into another list.

It looks like you need GDscript and a signal for when an item of the MenuButton is selected. It could go something like this:

func _ready():
     # Access the "country_menu" PopupMenu through this.
     var country_list_popup_menu: PopupMenu = $country_list.get_popup()
     # Signal for when the user selects an PopupMenu item.
     country_list_popup_menu.connect("id_pressed", self, "_on_country_selected")

 # Function that handles the item selected.
 func _on_country_selected( id ):
       # Code for populating the Dropdown menu or the ItemList. Use the "id" parameter to get which item was selected in the MenuButton.

I donw know what happening, but link ButtonMenu + child PopupMenu - doesnt work correctly if you create them from GUI.
I solve my problem by fully using code for it. Parent MenuButton was created by GUI and child PopupMenu - by code.
$ The problem in log: “node not found”, he just can’t see a child node if i set them by any ways except New.

  1. var node = get_node(“sublist”) #error not see
  2. onready var node = $sublist #error not see
    But if you create it by GDScript - no errors all is fine.

SO if any people meet with that problem, the solve looks like:

If you want to do something like that.

Thanks anyway for hearing my call!
