New
Search List control
The Search List control enables you to select multiple items from a list and relate
them together. Want to assign job roles or tasks to multiple locations? Simply tap
in the name of the record and Bizagi displays a list of matches.
For example, choose several European countries to visit for your next trip, without
using a table. The Search list control displays ALL records for European countries,
enabling you to select one or more and associate them to the Countries to visit
attribute.
The Search list works similarly to a Suggest control: it displays a text box where the
end user types the name of the record to relate and Bizagi displays a list of
matches.
