Hello,
I have a checkbox token that has 100 values. The usability problem is that the list is displayed it its entirety which pushes the visualization panels down, and makes the dashboard quite ugly.
Is it possible to have the checkbox list be like a dropdown with a vertical scrollbar so that the user scrolls through and checks their desired values?
Thank you and best regards,
Andrew
You should consider using Multiselect Box which has Drop Down also.
Refer Splunk Documentation :

Hi,
wouldn´t it be easier to use a drop down menu?
It will have a scrollbar by default.
Kind Regards
Hello and thanks for the reply.
This is an option yes, but when multiple values are selected, it displays them one after the other and creates the same usability issue. Also, values have to be selected one at a time and that's a pain.
I suppose I don't have to use a checkbox, but I need something that will be more compact when a large number of values have been selected, as well as something that allows me to select multiple values easily.
Regards,
Andrew
multiselect would be my suggestion. very compact, user can type the start of a term and it will populate a few matching results and they can click on what they need, or it will populate a scrolling list to search through. multiple values can be selected if needed.
I agree that the multiselect provides these capabilities, but here are the issues I see:
I was hoping I could combine the best of the checkboxes and the best of the multiselect into a single input type. I guess this isn't possible.
Thanks for your input!
