[x ] Question

Version

Please specify what version of the library you are using: [ 3.10.0 ]

Expected / Desired Behavior / Question

Is it possible to use the ListItemPicker and search inside two different columns?
E.g. user types in 'Test' and the picker will search inside the Title column and for example inside an other text column?

Steps to Reproduce

It would be great if you could give columnInternalName a string array.

Maybe there is a good way / trick that I have not seen yet.

Thanks for any help.

Research direction

Start by locating the ListItemPicker component and its columnInternalName handling. Read how the current search is applied to the Title column, then check the component’s existing examples or tests if available. Done means the picker can search the requested text across two columns while preserving current single-column behavior.
