Combo box and completer for multiple choice fields

[RickSteekelenburg]

It's great to finally have multiple-choice fields in fieldmaps now however when you have a big list, or like in our case even a few big lists with multiple options, the form quickly becomes very cluttered.

It would be great if, instead of a list that is always visible, the field would show up as the comma deliniated sum of selected options and would open in a drop down combo box (if possible with completer for easy searching).

Right now not having this unfortunately makes the mutiple choice fields unusable for our workflow and so we still have to use a workaround with expressions to get a a workable form.

Hi Rick, thanks for sharing your idea! 

One option that I have been playing around with is to keep the multiple choice question in a collapsable group in the form. You can then expose the comma deliniated list of selected options above the group using the info element. Think this would work for your use case as a work around?

Hello Megan,

Thank you for the reply and solution, this does look like a nice workaround. Unfortunately most of our fields are already grouped and it is not possible to place a group within another group.

For now we have a working workaround with a calculated expression field that sums the options selected in another list but it would be nice to fully use this function without the need for workarounds.
