enum value in Forms\Components\Select

My enum labels shows both as Select element value and label. Using Filament docs example here as a base.

enum Status: string implements HasLabel
{
    case DRAFT = 'My draft label';    
    public function getLabel(): ?string
    {
        return $this->name;
    }
}

enum Status: string implements HasLabel
{
    case DRAFT = 'My draft label';    
    public function getLabel(): ?string
    {
        return $this->name;
    }
}

Select::make('status')
    ->options(Status::class)

Select::make('status')
    ->options(Status::class)

It produces:

<option value="My draft label">My draft label</option>

<option value="My draft label">My draft label</option>

I'd like to have:

<option value="DRAFT">My draft label</option>

<option value="DRAFT">My draft label</option>

How to "fix" this?

Thank you for reply. Yes i made this example based on Filament docs about Enums (my 2nd sentence in original post). So any idea why it is not working as i expect and docs say?

case Draft = 'DRAFT';
...

public function getLabel(): ?string
{
    return match ($this) {
        self::Draft => 'My draft label',
        ...
    };
}

case Draft = 'DRAFT';
...

public function getLabel(): ?string
{
    return match ($this) {
        self::Draft => 'My draft label',
        ...
    };
}

So i have to double my Enums with separate labels? I was really trying to avoid that.. Thank you!

You really shouldn't use the value as a label. It's meant as a short descriptor for storing in the database etc.

Understood. Thank you!
