Select2 multiple selection - Search field does not display the full placeholder


https://preview.keenthemes.com/html/metronic/docs/forms/select2#multiple-selection

I don't know why select2-search--inline is limited by 177px which prevents select2 display a long placeholder.
In your example, please replace your placeholder from "Select an option" to "Select an option from the list" you will see it will display only Select an option from the which misses list word while the width of the select is quite commodious.

In Select2 site, if select2-search__field is set 100%, it really extends 100% without limit.

I couldn't find the difference in Metronic. Could you help me take a look?

Thanks

Glad to hear that happy Please let us know if you need any further help.


Your Support Matters!

We will highly appreciate your Metronic Review on Themeforest.
Please go to Themeforest Downloads page, select Metronic & leave your feedback.

HI,

Thank you for the heads-up.

We will fix this in the next update. In the meantime you can edit src/sass/vendors/plugins/_select2.scss and add flex-grow: 1; to the code section in line 77:


// Search
.select2-search.select2-search--inline {
flex-grow: 1;
}


Then recompile your assets folder with Gulp or Webpack.

Please note that the build tools are required only in the development environment just to compile the assets when the source folder files are modified. In the hosting/server deployment, you will only need the compile assets, no need to install the build tools dependencies there.

Regards.
