Last item on choice list not visible in landscape mode with minimal autocomplete

Support
1

1. What is the issue? Please be detailed.
With an autocomplete minimal appearance, when in portrait mode all items are visible on screen (after collapsing the keyboard). But when in landscape mode, the last item is not shown and cannot be selected until the list is filtered down enough to reduce the options to <= the max that can be displayed.

Edit: Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Plus, Android 16, One UI 8

2. What steps can we take to reproduce this issue?
have a long choice list (~>20 items), use autocomplete minimal appearance and test in both orientations

Hi @ahblake

Thanks for reporting the issue. We’ll take a look at it and, of course, fix it soon.

Could i make another suggestion, which might not be possible?

When using autocomplete/search and the keyboard is displayed, it covers choices and must be collapsed to access them. This is worse in landscape mode.

If it was possible to limit the height of the displayed choice area to to visible area - full when kb collapsed and partial when kb visible, this would be easier to use.

Yeah, I agree. The same thing crossed my mind while I was working on the fix for displaying the last item. I've filed an issue: https://github.com/getodk/collect/issues/7323

Tried this out, these two changes to make the last option in landscape plus not hiding choices behind the keyboard are both really nice updates! Especially for my large choice lists with images, these are much more usable now in their minimal autocomplete columns appearance.
