    Sir

    When the remoteautocomplete is set to 2 and as soon as 2 charectors are typed / inserted , the request is fired and all the existing items are cleared.

    The problem arises when
    Suppose My existing list has

    Inde
    Indo
    India
    Indiapolis

    If I type ‘In’ then also the list is cleared and remote search is fired.

    Would adding a property like ‘Send for search only if not in current list’ a option that could be implemented

    Regards

    Hello Sanjay Gupta,

    You could use this workaround. Focus on the ‘search’ callback.
