Placeholder for Filter

[William]

Is there a way to add a placeholder for the filter input box?  I have Select Location as my main placeholder but when the user opens the tree I would like the placeholder in the search box to be "Search by city...".

 

Thanks,
Bill

Hello Bill,

I've already replied to your query in the support ticket. I suggest that we continue our technical conversation in the mentioned thread.

I will also paste the reply here so other developers can find it helpful as well:

There is a built-in placeholder for the dropdowntree itself:

As for the filtering input, you can use the open event handler:
