Default Value Multi Selection

tchsupport 11 Jun, 2025

Dear Team,

sry for silly question. But I can't set the default value (e.g. "Please select"), if multi selection is activated.

Could you help me or do I need to program manually a JS?

Thanks

Hi

Yes, when you have Multi selection you can not have a default empty value, you may use the "Hint" behavior to show a message under the dropdown, but not inside it

Another option for multi selection is to use a Checkboxes group

if a placeholder is very important to you then this feature can be added in a future update
