Topic: Search box for Angular multiselect
Hi there,
We are using the latest Angular MDB PRO on our project. One of our needs is to have a multiselect control that provides dozens of selection options, which implies an ability to search for values inline.
From reading the docs, I understand the jQuery multiselect support inline search, as shown in the "Multiselect with search box" example https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/jquery/forms/multiselect/
Unfortunately, I couldn't find a similar sample in the Angular docs - https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/angular/forms/multiselect/
Does it mean the inline search is not available in the Angular version of multiselect? If so, are there any workarounds available to make multiselect options searchable for users?
I really hope we can find a solution to this issue as it sounds like a pretty common use case to be solved with all MDB versions.

Hello,
You need to add [filterEnabled]="true" input to your mdb-select component. You can find more information about useful inputs in API section in select/multiselect documentation (switch the tab at the top of the page). We will add an example to the main page as well.

Excellent news, thank you Arkadiusz!
A live example would help me, as well as other Angular novices, find these handy features more easily.
