I am trying to create a grid of drop down menus. I was hoping something along the lines of the following would work:

```julia
using Interact
M = 2
N = 3
options = Observable(["a", "b"])
c = repeat([dropdown(options)],M,N)
display.(c)

```

Here, the appropriate number of dropdown boxes are generated and displayed, but they are not displayed in a MxN grid. Changing `display.(c)` to `display(c)` doesn’t generate the widgets.

Does anyone have thought on how best to go about this?
