Modern Control Combo Box and Office 365 Users

Power Apps
1

We have like 15K users and I haven’t found a way to use the new modern combo box yet. Does anyone have it working for large companies…

Normally I use this for the legacy combo box items
//Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm: ComboboxCanvas1.SearchText})

With the modern version I’ve tried this, but the response won’t find people. I threw in the top 999 based on other suggestions, but that doesn’t solve it.
Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm:ComboboxCanvas1.SearchText,top:999})

While Office 365 Users isn’t the only good use for a combo box and while not all companies have > 999 users, it does seem a weak link in the modern controls right now. Any insight?

Hello @sasrsc ,
I encountered the same issue, the combobox looks nice but doesn’t work - had to stick to the old, ugly combobox that works fine.

I found the same issues. It doesnt register beyond 800, regardless of any delegation workarounds in the items property. I am back to classic, nesting it inside a container for corner radius and set at rgba 245,245,245 to tie in with other modern controls where necessary

Thanks Gerard … would you mind sharing you settings for how you replicate the look of the new combo box. I did add a radius border of 1 on the container and made the color RGBA(245,245, 245, 1) + I made the fill of the old combo box be RGBA(245,245, 245, 1). What else? It’s still looks a wee bit off.

The modern combobox does not have pagination. In its current state I find it to be unusable. Recommend only using the classic combobox right now.
