Description

Hi Team,

Is there any option to enable the search option for dropdowns from which we choose data? In some use cases, the dropdown becomes too big, and it's very hard to find appropriate parameters by scrolling.

For example:

Here the dropdown occupies almost the whole screen.

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start by locating the dropdown implementation used for the data-selection controls and reproduce the oversized dropdown shown in the issue image. Done means users can search or filter the available parameters instead of needing to scroll through the full list; the issue does not name a file or test to run.
