Search expressions in dynamically loaded multiple-choice options

Dear All

Am I correct in thinking that there is no way to negatively filter dynamically loaded multiple-choice options ?

ie

I would like an expression such as

search(csvName, 'doesnotcontain', columnsToSearch, searchText)

similarly I would like doesnotstartwith, dosnotendwith etc

Or perhaps a way to invert the search - something like '!contains'

I guess there is always a more-or-less clumsy way around this limitation, but it would be very useful

Thanks

Steve

Hi Steve,

Did you end up finding a solution to this? Since you are a dev, you
could build and contribute to the project.

Thanks,

Yaw
