Dropdown menu doesn't drop!

Hey guys,

I am creating a UI with a dropdown menu, unfortunately when entering play mode, it doesn’t work.

Here is the hierarchy view (sorry about the redaction as it isn’t by choice):

I have one script attached:

public class UpdateOptionsDropDown : MonoBehaviour {

    [SerializeField] private DropdownType type;
    private Dropdown dropDown;

    private void Awake()
    {
        dropDown = GetComponent<Dropdown>();

        //InitializeDropDownValue();

        dropDown.onValueChanged.AddListener(UpdateOptionsValue);
    }

    public void InitializeDropDownValue() // Once the drop down is created it takes in the value from the settings class.
    {
        switch (type)
        {
            case DropdownType.ANTI_ALIASING:
                dropDown.value = GUIManager.instance.settings.AntiAliasing;
                QualitySettings.antiAliasing = GUIManager.instance.settings.AntiAliasing;
                break;
            case DropdownType.LIGHT_SHADOW_MODIFIER:
                dropDown.value = GUIManager.instance.settings.LightShadowModifier;
                break;
        }
    }

    private void UpdateOptionsValue(int _value)
    {
        switch (type)
        {
            case DropdownType.ANTI_ALIASING:
                GUIManager.instance.settings.AntiAliasing = _value;
                QualitySettings.antiAliasing = _value;
                break;
            case DropdownType.LIGHT_SHADOW_MODIFIER:
                GUIManager.instance.settings.LightShadowModifier = _value;
                break;
        }
    }
}

The funny thing is that when I put the “Options Panel” under an empty canvas and run the scene and I test it, it drops just fine. For some reason in the canvas above it doesn’t drop when I click it. Any ideas?

Note: I am using 5.6.0f3

Thanks in advance.
