Customise search capability in multiselect - checkbox mode

[tarannum]

Hi

I have a multiselect in checkbox mode. For every search , the searching happens based on the start of a string. Is it possible to configure it so it can search any keyword in the datasource?

Please see attachment for example.

Thanks

Hi Tarannum, 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support. 

We checked the reported requirement and the attached video demonstration. On examining the provided information, we suspect that you are in need of filtering the values, when the typed character matches with any of the values in the popup. By default, Filtering works only based on the first character matching. Therefore, we suggest you to configure the FilterType as Contains to achieve your requirement. We made sample for your convenience. Please find the sample in the below link.

<SfMultiSelect TValue="string[]" FilterType="FilterType.Contains" TItem="Countries" Mode="VisualMode.CheckBox" AllowFiltering="true"  Placeholder="e.g. Australia" DataSource="@Country"> 

    <MultiSelectFieldSettings Text="Name" Value="Code"></MultiSelectFieldSettings> 

</SfMultiSelect>
