Expected / Desired Behavior / Question
I'd like the option of finding List Items in picker as a substring search rather than just starts-with.
Observed Behavior
Users need to know exactly how an item in the target list starts in order to find it. This is only feasible for some use cases.
Steps to Reproduce
Create a List with many items with very different titles. Maybe all the city names in your country. Or dog breeds. Or cheeses. I'm pretty sure there's some CSVs of those somewhere 😉. Create a List with a lookup column into the first list. Build a test app/web part or something to use the ListItemPicker control on the lookup field.
Try and find a city/dog/cheese :)
Now, wouldn't that be better with a substring search?
You betcha.
