Type-Ahead characters for List Variable

Post by cbrydon »

Hello,

For many of the reports I write, I use picklist variables. Usually the lists are not that long and its easy for users to scroll down and pick
the option they are interested in. I have one report though where there are hundreds of options and the options all begin with a 6 digit
numeric value; something like the following....

100331 - West Area Headquarters
100332 - East Area Headquarters
....
113456 - Southwest Field Office
113457 - Big Mountain Field Office
113458 - River Valley Headquarters

I've attached a screenshot of how I've setup the variable. Is there a way to control or increase the number of type ahead characters in the picklist control
so that a user could type in 113 to get closer to the option they want rather than having to scroll through the list? Should I be using a different kind of
variable?

I am still using Stimulsoft Reports.Web 2017.1.6 from June 3, 2017, ASP.NET, Flex.

Thanks,
Carl

Hello, Carl.

Unfortunately, it's impossible to do so in this build.
This feature was added to HTML5 Viewer in one of our latest builds.
Please, try our latest build that is available on our site.

Thank you.
