What does the component do?
It supports the user when entering suggestions.
When should the component be used?
When an entry field can have lots of pre-defined values.
As an aid for previewing search results/fields.
Rules
Autocompletion always has a label.
Optional entries include the text ‘(optional)’ behind the label text. The text ‘(optional)’ can be abbreviated as ‘(opt.)’ in short fields.
A question mark in the circle can also be shown – in addition to the label – for detailed explanations. A tooltip opens if this question mark is clicked on.
During entry, suggestions appear directly (usually after three symbols but they can be modified on a project-specific base).
The entries listed can be scrolled through using the arrow keys and accepted with Enter.
A maximum of ten suggestions are shown.
The autocompletion selection closes when an element is selected.
