Hi All,
I am using combobox as an autocomplete control. It works fine, however combobox auto suggests all values even without typing in any keywords in search area.
Is it possible to allow combobox to autosuggest values, only when 3rd or 4th letter is keyed in the SearchText area ?
Hi @Iantaylor2050 ,
The inbuilt Search function in a Combo Box only has two settings, on or off, so unfortunately you cannot choose to "trigger" it at a certain point.
Please click Accept as solution if my post helped you solve your issue. This will help others find it more readily. It also closes the item. If the content was useful in other ways, please consider giving it Thumbs Up.
Hi @Iantaylor2050,
You can always make your own Combo Box with a Text Input and a Gallery. The Items for your Gallery would look something like:
Items= If(Len(TextInputSearch.Text) < 3, Blank(),Filter(sourceTable,TextInputSearch.Text in sourceColumn))
this may be a very late response but you can absolutely do this.
If you go to your combobox and enter this line of code then it will work as you suggested. (in the items property)
If(Len(ComboBox1.SearchText) > 3,Source)
Hope this helps for anyone trying to do this.
