Change selected item on focus with keyboard typing

Closed this issue 8 years ago · 2 comments

Is it possible to select the first option that matches what you are typing when the control has focus? Much like you could do with a plan HTML select control, so if you typed "TW" in this plnkr, it would select the option "TWO"...

Is that currently possible?

Sorry, the feature is not implemented.
Maybe the live-search="true" would help

Thanks, that seems to work.

Enter => opens the live search.
[Type] => filter until the correct one is selected.
Enter => select & close.
