Lost search ability on lookup column

Before I set this filter

Filter(
Choices(ProgressNotes.Client),
Value in Filter(ClientId, ClientStatus = "Active").ClientID
)

You could start typing the ClientId and pick that ClientId or you could scroll to choose

After setting the above filter you can only scroll and pick the ClientId , is it possible to have both the type and scroll to search when choosing the ClientId if filtering by another column value?

Hi @thomasw1964, 😊

Are you referring to the native search functionality of a combobox? When adjusting the items property, it can occur that the Search field is defaulted to false.

Could you please double check that (1) Value is defined as your search field and (2) Search is turned on. This can be done by selecting the combobox and checking the corresponding fields in the right property panel..

(Search can be found by scrolling down)

If this solves your question, would you be so kind as to accept it as a solution.

Thanks!

I did try that previously, i should have mentioned that the filter is on the Items function of the datacard for that lookup column. So, it made sense to me when I got the error that the SearchInputText.Text wasn't recognized.

thanks for the reply though
