Search () Function:

[farzad_hussaini]

Hi,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am encountering an issue with my XLSForm. The form includes a long list of enumerators, and I would like to implement a search function so that enumerators can easily find their names. I have added the search() appearance, and it works correctly when tested on a server computer. However, it does not work on Android devices or tablets.

I would appreciate your help in resolving this issue.

Please note: I added the enumerators name in choices sheet with select_one type. Not in csv.file.

Thanks for your support

Regards,
Farzad

Searchable Dropdown List in KoBoToolbox for Large Item Lists

Hi everyone, I’m using KoBoToolbox and wondering if it supports searchable dropdown lists? Here’s what I need: I have a list of around 10,000 products, and I want users to be able to type part of a product name in the dropdown field and quickly find the item, instead of scrolling through the entire list. Is this feature available in KoBoToolbox? If yes, could someone guide me on how to enable or implement it? If No. do you have any solution? Thanks in advance!

It worked in select_one questions but for select_multiple questions how we can add this in the appearance section. I have added the (autocomplete) to the appearance but it didn’t work, I work in xls form please provide with your support?
