RelatedDropdownFilter with autocomplete #867

Do you have any examples?

It should work the same way as a field defined in autocomplete_fields

Is it a third party application feature request?

No

Describe your feature request

If there are a lot of objects (e.g. 10k) it can impact the page load drastically. Therefore I suggest adding the same behavior as autocomplete_fields. This means, It loads a few objects, when you click into the input field, loads more objects when you reach the scroll bottom and loads objects oninput. This results in a much smoother page experience.

Hey, I'm already aware of this feature request and I completely agree with it. Unfortunately, developing this feature + maintenance will take quite some time. If you are looking into putting the development at the beginning of the pipeline, get in touch with me here: https://unfoldadmin.com
