Is there any way to keep the a dropdown menu open after selecting an element?

i would like to keep my dropdown open and allow the user to select more options even to type some keywords for filtering. 

i want something similar to this

Hi,

I think multiple select would fit your needs.

You can turn on the search input inside - it filters out options.

Use `<MDBSelectOptions search>` to achieve that.

Also, if you look into API section, you will find out much more options.

 

Best,

Jakub

Hi Jakub, 

I thank you very much for responding to my post.

I thought the same thing but the select will be an input and not a button. I thought I could do the same thing as on airbnb here(on this picture):

We dont't have component like that in the set, but I belive that this could be done by just puting your content into DropdownItem and modifying  classes in
.dropdown-menu .dropdown-item.acitve {}
(item changes backgorund on hover and on click).

Set toggle={false} property inside DropdownItem to prevent dropdown from closing.

By the way - this looks like a cool stuff to implement in our package, I will send it further to our design team.
