How to access label of dropdown property?

Hi Everyone!

I thought this would be simple enough, but can't seem to find an answer in my research so I thought I would ask on here.  I'm needing to get the label of a dropdown for an effect's parameter. 

I can use the following to get the index of the selection in the dropdown returned:

myLayer.effect("Effect Match Name")("Dropdown Param Name").value

However, I want the label that is in the actual dropdown, not the index value.  Is there any way to retrieve that or do I just need to create some kind of enum array and do a lookup?

Thanks,
Arie
