Hello,
I have a question regarding dropdown search.
In my application i now have a input search to filter through a column in a table and its filtering and only showing the ones that i'm searching for.
Is there a way to populate the search with examples like in a dropdown, the examples are supposed to be there all the time when clicking on the down arrow to choose, but i should also be able to filter through by writing the text as its doing now.
With the dropdown search its not working, it only shows the examples but the search is only searching through the dropdown and nothing else.
Is there a way to "add" a dropdown list to show the elements and still be able to search and filter the column in the table?
Thanks!
Hi @Timmy M ,
have a look in the forge in the Reactive section with search string 'autocomplete'
the ones from Leonardo Fernandes, Steven Decock or Outsystems Labs look promising.

Dropdown from OutsystemsUI doesn't work for what you need?
But with the dropdown you can only choose whats in the drop down, and not enter any text in the field?
I want to have a search input, but it is also clickable to the right on an arrow, and then a list of examples opens up below.
For example, i have a table with a column that is displaying different color names for each row.
And then i have a input search for that column, when i enter the letter g, then green and orange is only showing up and the rest is filtered out, this is working for me so no problem there.
But i want to be able to click the input search and get up examples, so i can click it and then it filter out the rest, if this makes any sense? :)
It seems you want is something you only can achieve doing your own custom widget :)
Hi Timmy M,
From my understanding,You want to filter the table while inputting the search at the dropdown.
For example, In the dropdown, when you enter the letter g, then green and orange are only showing up and the rest is filtered out, also the table is filtered at the same time.
Correct if I'm wrong.
