I am using the single line select box for filling out a form value. The drop down box i have created has 800 entries populated from a foreign key table. The form loads and works fine. My issue is when selecting from the displayed values the user can either scroll and select via a mouse click, or type the first letter of the entry to see the values. Can the drop-down respond similar to Gravity Forms drop down, this is where the user can type a series of letters to narrow the selection. At the moment we can only type 1 letter, I would like to type in quick succession 1, 2 or more to narros the selection. Example type 'AG' to narrow the drop down selection to show all entries starting with 'AG'. Is there a workaround or is there an update to solve this?
Please be aware that sorting and searching may not work as expected for complex entries when server side is turned on. This problem is on Gravity side, and we are working on solution. Thank you for understanding.
