Search Visual - functionality

Hi,

 

Is it possible to use the "Search Visual" and have multiple filters on this visual? When I bring across more than 1 field, it wont search through that second field.

 

Example - Car types is one field, Car reg is a second field. How do I create a search function that uses both fields to search?

 

Also is there a way of predictive search? If I start to type it will start searching and narrowing down the fields avaiable? For example if I type Ma ....... the field will start to filter on cars begining with those names or even spelt wrong. eg MAzda, MAdza, MAserati etc.

 

Thanks

Hi @herefortryouts,

 

As a complement, when you use ‘Smart Filter’, you can't do fuzzy queries like you can with ‘Text Filter’, you can only filter the exact value by multiple fields.

The feature you need is not currently supported.

thanks for reply.

 

With this text filter you can still only have one "field" included. Adding the required fields to the filters doent work
