right now the value in filterText is cleared after a selection but it can be usefull, expecially in multi-selection mode, to not clear the current filter so users can select multiple items from list without the need of re-typing the filter.
I propose to add a new prop, similar to clearFilterTextOnBlur, to determine if clearing or not the value in filterText when a selection happens.
I think it is enough to add a check at this point in the code based on a "prop" to determine the desired behavior.
Similar to how it is already done during blur event.
Right now, I'm working around this issues by binding filterText and automatically set the previous value when the library try to clear it. But it's not a clean solution because it triggers multiple changes to the underling list and a flickering of the items in the list.
Hi,
right now the value in
filterTextis cleared after a selection but it can be usefull, expecially in multi-selection mode, to not clear the current filter so users can select multiple items from list without the need of re-typing the filter. I propose to add a new prop, similar toclearFilterTextOnBlur, to determine if clearing or not the value infilterTextwhen a selection happens.In this moment the clearing of the filter happen in L493 https://github.com/rob-balfre/svelte-select/blob/244e5bb73a88db7fa5b9ee26206b4c388d2abcce/src/lib/Select.svelte#L493
