Dynamic View - Drop down list in 'Details Panel'

MichelleBohn

With in Dynamic View's details panel is there a way you can start to type some of the drop down information to pull up that option instead of scrolling for the right one? See below 'Market' can't type. Am I doing something wrong or is this by design? If by design I vote for an update.

Hi @MichelleBohn

If your drop-down list is a Single-Select type of column, then the users will need to scroll and find the value they want (as you're experiencing). However, if your column is a Multi-Select column, then you can type in the box to filter the drop-down list and find the results they're looking for.

Please submit an Enhancement Request for this same functionality for a Single-Select drop-down!

Thanks,

Genevieve

Haha no problem! Let me know if that will work for you once you've tested 🙂

@lewis hamilton - Thanks for responding Lewis I understand how to create a new view, but once your in the view the side panel function is difficult for my team to work in. They want to be able to start typing an it auto fills from the drop down value instead of scrolling through 50 + data points to select the right entry.

@Genevieve P switching it from a single-select type of column to multi-select worked. Thanks again

Genevieve P.

No problem! Glad it worked for you 🙂

This is not a solution. My users can only select one value. If they select more than one value in error, then I have bigger problems. Is this on the enhancement list?

@Ken Y - I didn't add it to the enhancement list, but it would be a good idea.
