Drop down limit

Kristine Bunikiewicz

Is there a limit to the number of items which show in a dropdown? Our team wants to have a long list of names for an Assigned To column. The users can see about 5 names at a time, but they can only scroll down to the middle of the alphabet when searching for a name.

It's cumbersome to find any names with letters after M. Is there a solution or an easier way to find and select names?

Users are primarily Editors and Viewers.

Thanks!

As you start typing in the field the possible options appear. Try typing out one of the letters of the lower level past m and see if possible names appear?

In the past Smartsheet has indicated there is a limit of 5000 options.
