Modern lists - missing field

Hello,

I recently discovered a missing feature in the modern lists. In the classic setup you can add a field in a form with the option Allow 'Fill-in' choices: "Yes" which pops up in a form as an additional option to "Specify your own value." in a related text field. Using this option in the setup however does not show up the same field in a modern list form, so my request is to add that option into the modern lists related form also as it can be very useful in some cases.

  • Hi UG, if you start typing right where the cursor is, it should work. I think the confusion is because we don't show the tooltip when the focus is in the field.

     

    In this example below, I have Apple, Banana and Cantaloupe as my options, and I'm adding Tangerine as a fill-in option, and after i hit enter it gets added to the choices:

    I see this option in my SPO lists. When you click the drop down options in a choice field, if 'Choose your own' is enabled, it gives me a blank field to populate. When I type that, and press enter, the new option is displayed.

        Unfortunately I see something different and can't find the option to enter own values.
