Create a dummy / proxy item which has the options you want and then have that in the UI. You then create a rule that runs when your dummy / proxy item is changed where you can set the Shelly items to whatever values you want based on the new state of your dummy / proxy item.

It needs to be a string, since you have multiple states. And then you just show it on a UI as a switch or selection element with mapped buttons.
