function EditFieldValueChanged(app, event)

new = app.EditField.Value;

hDropDown = app.DropDown;

currentItems = get(hDropDown);

[~, index] = ismember(hDropDown.Value, hDropDown.Items);

newItems = {currentItems,new};

newItems(index) = [];

end

This will add the edit text's string to the drop down's list of items as long as it is not already there:

function EditFieldValueChanged(app, ~)
    new = app.EditField.Value;
    if ~any(ismember(app.DropDown.Items, new))
        app.DropDown.Items = [app.DropDown.Items new];
    end
end

Is this what you're looking for?
