Suggestion: Predictive filter on fields

[Alessandro Verdoni]

Hi Dan,

I noticed that, every time I add a new item in the field "Assigned to" it is memorized forever.

This is a great feature because it is not necessary to retype the item every time.

On the other side, after a while the list become really huge (see below).

Do you think it would be possible to:

- automatically show the list as soon as the control is activated.

- add some sort of prediction filter excluding all the items not matching with the letters already typed into the textbox?

thanks for considering.

A very interesting idea, Alessandro, which needs careful thought (so 7.3 at the earliest).

In the short-term how about I scroll the list to highlight the first item matching what's being typed?

I guess that highlighting the first item matching what's being typed could also be a valid solution.

Thanks Dan for your quick answer.
