    Description

      (Remaining issue is for *menu fields *only, all other parts have been solved before.)

      In the database activity, if you have options of 0,1, 2 as radio buttons, tick boxes or multi-menu options they all display, but if you use the same values in a standard dropdown menu the zero value is ignored, and only the positive numbers are shown in the 'add entry' options.
