Would be nice to have the new more powerful value relation widget for multiple selections too, something like: image

This has been accepted as an enhancement request. Good job :+1: Enhancement requests are very valuable to make QField better. They sometimes attract others and just happen magically. More often however they need someone to jump in and make them come true.

Hi,

It would definitely be an improvement for those cases where one has a very long multiple-selection-list.

When working on this, you might want to have a look at the following too: I would like it better if, when not editing a multi-selection-list, it would only show the selected terms or a "(no selection)" mention, rather than showing the whole selection-list. Certainly for longer selection-lists this is an issue as the UI now has a set length and thus the selection-list is cut off after x terms. This would be an enhancement for QGIS too, as we have the same problem there.

kind regards, Robin

Just wondering if there is any interest in moving this forward. I would love to have multiple selections open in a new panel much like with normal searchable lists from Value Relation. We have very long lists for multiple selections (plant species, comments) and currently the length of the widget makes it unusuable, there's barely enough space to scroll down.

(Super bonus would be multiple selections with search box!!)

With the release of QGIS 3.30 supporting search box/autocomplete and multiple selections in the value relation widget (see https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/visualchangelog330/index.html#feature-multiple-selections-with-filtering-in-value-relation-widget) any chance we might see this finally brought over to QField as well?

Would be so good for anyone in ecology/botany etc - many long lists of long names that need multiple selections.
