Dynamic Autocomplete

WEB WEB Feature Requests
1

I’d like to request a new WebCore control similar to autocomplete, but with these features:

  • Triggers an event after n characters are entered.
  • The event returns a list of items (with value + display text).
  • A dropdown is populated from this list and continues to filter as the user types further.

This would be very useful for scenarios like searching large datasets or integrating with server-side lookups.

We will investigate if this could not be a possible extension of the current TWebEditAutoComplete to add a kind of virtual mode. If not possible, we'll consider a separate control.
