Hi, I have an issues with modern controls form and Combobox:
I use a sharepoint list as my datasource named "Register".
There is a column named "Responsible". This is a 'person' choice column, single select. So I can select any user within our organisation.
In my PowerApp I made a (Modern Control) form with the "Responsible" column as one field to fill in.
The Modern Control Form adds a dropdown-field (not a combobox). The results I get are very limited.
So I add in a Modern Control combobox and give it the exact same formulas:
Item = Choices([@Register].Responsible)
DefaultSelectedItems = Parent.Default
Fields = DisplayName
IsSearchable = true
I can now search, but the searchable values are still limited to the same few.
So I add in a (classic? Not the modern one) combobox. Add the same formulas:
DefaultSelectedItems = Parent.Default
Fields = DisplayName
IsSearchable = true
No I can search people from the entire organisation. When I save the form and reopen the item, it'll pop up on both comboboxes and the dropdown. The search cabilities on the modern control is still limited.
Is this a bug? Or am I doing something wrong?
Looking forward to get some responses. Thanks in advance!

I have the same issue with this new control. More info in: Re: Modern Controls Form NOT looking up users (Ema... - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)
I have this same issue, causing great concern at the lack of ability and support from Microsoft of Modern features not fit for purpose. I have my issue which is pretty much the same on this thread...

Still looking for a solution or will escalate to microsoft developers in the new year...
Unfortunately not.. I am currently using the classic combobox to fix it.
Use the Color.WhiteSmoke for the (background)fills, chevron(background)fillsand selectiontag color. Remove the border. Give it a 32 height and 11 point font in Arial. This makes it fit the rest of the form.
Did you get this to work? I have the same issue...when I choose a person, it just disappears.
In addition:
I tried a modern-combobox (which was not connected to the form) with the following 'Items': Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm:Self.SearchText, top:999})
I could find all the users, but not be able to select a user..
When selecting a user, it'll just disappear right after.
If I could get this to work, this could be the workarround solution.
Hi, Thanks for your rapid response.
Data Row Limit is already set to 2000.
SearchFields does not exist in the modern control combobox, only in the classic combobox.

PowerApps is up-to-date.
Classic combobox seems the only solution (for now).
