Multiple-select in one column or container using Search Panes

manila24

Hi Guys!

First time asking question in the forum. I'm new to this so bare with me.

Is it possible to have a multiple selection of data in one column or container of a Search Pane?

if so how?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Hi @manila24 ,

SearchPanes uses the Select extension so yes you can select multiple items within a SearchPane. Just hold ctrl on your keyboard and click to select individual items, or shift to select a block of items.

Hope this helps,
Sandy

Hi @sandy ,

I use SearchPanes and I was wondering if multiple selection is possible without holding CTRL or SHIFT.

Like this experiment example :

Thanks for any help

Hi @Ziigmund ,

Yes that is possible, take a look at this example. All you need to do is set select.style to multi within searchPanes.dtOpts.

Thanks,

But without using ctrl multiselect as like @sandy mentioned in above example only works with "Pfrtip" DOM not in "Bfrtip" Dom how can we use it with "Bfrtip" Dom ?

Multiselect on clicking only works with Pfrtip Dom not for Bfrtip Dom how can we use it with bfrtip Dom ?

Hi @pawan878 ,

You need to put the SearchPanes configuration into the buttons config option. Take a look at this example.

Thanks,
