Property of Optionmenu in UI through toolkit

[Ketan_Lalcheta]

Hello

We have created a UI dialogue and it has different controls like Input panel, Option menu etc.

We do have filled possible values into Option menu which has almost 50+ values. If we think from end user's perspective, it is difficult to search for required input value from list. Is there any property so that user can directly select option menu and type required value, option menu can automatically select that value if availabl in list.

Any thought will be of great help. Do not hessitate to ask for more clarification.

Thanks in advance!!!

Regards

Ketan

Hi Ketan,

you need to program this by yourself. There is no direct support for this.

You can change the optionmenu to be editable inside the UI Editor. Its the "Read Only" Boolean Value and connect an action callback to filter down your items.
