Hi guys!
 
So I have multiple combo boxes, and when I select an option, the dropdown is still visible, and I want when I select one, the dropdown disappears.
This is when I select an option: 
So when this is selected, the thing is to close the dropdown automatically.
Is it possible?

    We choose combox box for multiple selection, not sure in your case you are maintaining multiple selection or not. If you don't need multiple items to be selected,  one quick short-cut way is to disable  SelectMultiple option of the combobox. Setting "false" will give you quick closure of the dropdown from combox. This is something like Dropdown feature. If it is not the case of multiple selection - probably we need to check for different workaround.
     
     
    Please let me know what is the case for you.
