Hello for everyone 😊 In Moscow beautiful weather at this autumn time! It's great that DroidScript lets us work even outdoors:))

In the our app for pet we have a list with almost 400 dog breeds. For choosing concrete breed we use ordinary spinner at this time. It is difficult to search needed breed in the such long list. 

Could you pls tell us is it possible to place spinner with built-in searching line? Or may be is it needed to use another list component?

Or we need to make separate text edit line for this task.

Thank you very much in advance. Have a nice day!

Best wishes
Dmitry

HI,
Probably simplest is a separate TextEdit box
with SetOnChange (every change) or SetOnEnter (when user types enter)
Keep the entries for the Spinner (or List) in an array,
then you can use javascript .filter on the array (creates a new shorter array)
finally SetList to the new array
(may need to convert new array toString)
Regards, ah
