Filtering

To enable the filtering functionality, set the filterable property to true.


Basic Configuration

When the filtering functionality is enabled, the component renders a filter input in the drop-down list. On every character input, the component triggers a onFilterChange event. The event argument contains the typed string value that you can use to filter the source.
