Why Choose ComponentOne MultiSelect?

Controls

Effortless Selection of Multiple Items

MultiSelect provides the most effortless approach to selecting multiple items from a .NET list. Text input with autocomplete and a drop-down of options further simplify the process for end-users.

Quickly Style Apps

Flexible, Smart Header Gives You Options

MultiSelect has a smart header that can display items as separate tags, plain text, or summarize the count when too many items are selected.

Editor

A .NET Tag Editor for Label Modifications

The MultiSelect controls can be used to provide .NET tag editing and label editing functionality. A bound data source is not required.

.NET MultiSelect Key Features

Format the Header

The MultiSelect control has a customizable header that can display selected items either as text or as tags.

  • Specify the separator character and enable wrapping.
  • Configure the header to summarize the selected items once they exceed a specified limit.
  • Set the format string to show the item count.

AutoComplete Edit Mode

MultiSelect supports text input, making editing a list of labels or tags very easy. Once you enter some text in the control field, it starts searching for items that match the entered string and displays a list of possible results.

Multiple Data Bindings

MultiSelect can be bound to two different data sources.

  • The DataSource is used to fill the list of all available items shown in the drop-down checklist.
  • The TagsDataSource can be used to propagate end-user selection to some other data source, probably with different data structures than the DataSource.
  • Furthermore, you can access selected items from the control to be used as a data source for any other control.

Extended Selection Modes

MultiSelect allows you to select specific items or all items from a defined list. You may control the selection mode (single, radio, multiple, extended), which defines how items in the list can be selected. Optionally, show or hide the checkboxes.

Checklist Component

The C1 .NET MultiSelect control uses a separate C1CheckList component to display in the drop-down. You can use this component separately to provide a checklist for multiple item selection without the header or drop-down components. The C1CheckList allows you to highlight your selection as a checklist or as a simple list of items.
