Not sure if this is what you are looking for? Built this based on another drop down I made added six countries. The different letters of the countries will change the value.
Not exactly what I wanted. This is a drop down, which i have found on the discussion.
Before the drop down, I want to type say 'Italy'. The moment I type the letter "I", a list of countries with the letter "I" being listed - e.g Iceland, Italy, Ireland etc. Then I will scroll to 'Italy' and select.
Ok, I set it up if you type "i", Italy shows up, or the letter for each country will do the same, so it is more of a drop down combo. I didn't add more I countries but you could add as many as you need.
Here is one other option I made, it has typing (as long as a country has that letter), and scroll ability. None of these require JS, you can do more with JS.
Lmk if you have questions, I will try to respond later today on my return.
All options are in layers on a text field (dd_1 1) as part of a group on the main timeline. You would need to put all your countries in there and name them so you can refer to them from the timeline.
Triggers on the main timeline change the state of the field which shows the country you want based on a keypress.
The "change" layer makes it so the text field resets after an entry.
I was working on getting up/down arrows to work as well. It is a work in progress, but hopefully you can adapt it for what you need.
Hi team, this discussion looks like a great start - has anyone built this with a full list of countries that they can share? Or would it be easier to embed a web object?
