Search Functionality

Hi @keerthi & @jseiden,

Backing up with the response provided by @martijnr, I just tried using the autocomplete in the appearance and it seems to work finely with KoBoCollect application, ODK Collect application and the Enketo.

  • If you are designing the form in XLSForm, you simply need to type autocomplete in the appearance column against the question.
  • If you are using the KoBoToolbox Formbuilder Interface, in the question, click to the setting button > Appearance (Advanced): > other > (type) autocomplete
  • Click to SAVE and you are done.

Now when you try to select the option (e.g. USA, UK etc.) of the question, you can simply get USA when you type US in the space provided. Or you are also able to select the option in the traditional way (i.e. by selecting the option from the list of choices).
