Usage

Combobox provides a set of components and hooks to custom select, multiselect or autocomplete components. The component is very flexible – you have full control of the rendering and logic.

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Input, InputBase, Combobox, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
  });

  const [value, setValue] = useState<string | null>(null);

  const options = groceries.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
      {item}
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  return (
    <Combobox
      store={combobox}
      onOptionSubmit={(val) => {
        setValue(val);
        combobox.closeDropdown();
      }}
    >
      <Combobox.Target>
        <InputBase
          component="button"
          type="button"
          pointer
          rightSection={<Combobox.Chevron />}
          rightSectionPointerEvents="none"
          onClick={() => combobox.toggleDropdown()}
        >
          {value || <Input.Placeholder>Pick value</Input.Placeholder>}
        </InputBase>
      </Combobox.Target>

      <Combobox.Dropdown>
        <Combobox.Options>{options}</Combobox.Options>
      </Combobox.Dropdown>
    </Combobox>
  );
}

useCombobox hook

useCombobox hook provides combobox store. The store contains the current state of the component and handlers to update it. Created store must be passed to the store prop of Combobox:

import { Combobox, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox();
  return (
    <Combobox store={combobox}>{/* Your implementation */}</Combobox>
  );
}

useCombobox options

useCombobox hooks accepts an options object with the following properties:

interface UseComboboxOptions {
  /** Default value for `dropdownOpened`, `false` by default */
  defaultOpened?: boolean;

  /** Controlled `dropdownOpened` state */
  opened?: boolean;

  /** Called when `dropdownOpened` state changes */
  onOpenedChange?(opened: boolean): void;

  /** Called when dropdown closes with event source: keyboard, mouse or unknown */
  onDropdownClose?(eventSource: ComboboxDropdownEventSource): void;

  /** Called when dropdown opens with event source: keyboard, mouse or unknown */
  onDropdownOpen?(eventSource: ComboboxDropdownEventSource): void;

  /** Determines whether arrow key presses should loop though items (first to last and last to first), `true` by default */
  loop?: boolean;

  /** `behavior` passed down to `element.scrollIntoView`, `'instant'` by default */
  scrollBehavior?: ScrollBehavior;
}

You can import UseComboboxOptions type from @mantine/core package:

import type { UseComboboxOptions } from '@mantine/core';

Combobox store

Combobox store is an object with the following properties:

interface ComboboxStore {
  /** Current dropdown opened state */
  dropdownOpened: boolean;

  /** Opens dropdown */
  openDropdown(eventSource?: 'keyboard' | 'mouse' | 'unknown'): void;

  /** Closes dropdown */
  closeDropdown(eventSource?: 'keyboard' | 'mouse' | 'unknown'): void;

  /** Toggles dropdown opened state */
  toggleDropdown(
    eventSource?: 'keyboard' | 'mouse' | 'unknown'
  ): void;

  /** Selected option index */
  selectedOptionIndex: number;

  /** Selects `Combobox.Option` by index */
  selectOption(index: number): void;

  /** Selects first `Combobox.Option` with `active` prop.
   *  If there are no such options, the function does nothing.
   */
  selectActiveOption(): string | null;

  /** Selects first `Combobox.Option` that is not disabled.
   *  If there are no such options, the function does nothing.
   * */
  selectFirstOption(): string | null;

  /** Selects next `Combobox.Option` that is not disabled.
   *  If the current option is the last one, the function selects first option, if `loop` is true.
   */
  selectNextOption(): string | null;

  /** Selects previous `Combobox.Option` that is not disabled.
   *  If the current option is the first one, the function selects last option, if `loop` is true.
   * */
  selectPreviousOption(): string | null;

  /** Resets selected option index to -1, removes `data-combobox-selected` from selected option */
  resetSelectedOption(): void;

  /** Triggers `onClick` event of selected option.
   *  If there is no selected option, the function does nothing.
   */
  clickSelectedOption(): void;

  /** Updates selected option index to currently selected or active option.
   *  The function is required to be used with searchable components to update selected option index
   *  when options list changes based on search query.
   */
  updateSelectedOptionIndex(target?: 'active' | 'selected'): void;

  /** List id, used for `aria-*` attributes */
  listId: string | null;

  /** Sets list id */
  setListId(id: string): void;

  /** Ref of `Combobox.Search` input */
  searchRef: React.MutableRefObject<HTMLInputElement | null>;

  /** Moves focus to `Combobox.Search` input */
  focusSearchInput(): void;

  /** Ref of the target element */
  targetRef: React.MutableRefObject<HTMLElement | null>;

  /** Moves focus to the target element */
  focusTarget(): void;
}

You can import ComboboxStore type from @mantine/core package:

import type { ComboboxStore } from '@mantine/core';

useCombobox handlers

Combobox store handlers can be used to control Combobox state. For example, to open the dropdown, call openDropdown handler:

import { Button, Combobox, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox();

  return (
    <Combobox>
      <Combobox.Target>
        <Button onClick={() => combobox.openDropdown()}>
          Open dropdown
        </Button>
      </Combobox.Target>

      {/* Your implementation */}
    </Combobox>
  );
}

You can use store handlers in useCombobox options. For example, you can call selectFirstOption when the dropdown is opened and resetSelectedOption when it is closed:

import { Combobox, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownOpen: () => combobox.selectFirstOption(),
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
  });

  return (
    <Combobox store={combobox}>{/* Your implementation */}</Combobox>
  );
}

Combobox.Target

Combobox.Target should be used as a wrapper for the target element or component. Combobox.Target marks its child as a target for dropdown and sets aria-* attributes and adds keyboard event listeners to it.

Combobox.Target requires a single child element or component. The child component must accept ref and ...others props. You can use any Mantine component as a target without any additional configuration, for example, Button, TextInput or InputBase.

Example of using Combobox.Target with TextInput component:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Combobox, TextInput, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox();
  const [value, setValue] = useState('');
  const shouldFilterOptions = !groceries.some((item) => item === value);
  const filteredOptions = shouldFilterOptions
    ? groceries.filter((item) => item.toLowerCase().includes(value.toLowerCase().trim()))
    : groceries;

  const options = filteredOptions.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
      {item}
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  return (
    <Combobox
      onOptionSubmit={(optionValue) => {
        setValue(optionValue);
        combobox.closeDropdown();
      }}
      store={combobox}
    >
      <Combobox.Target>
        <TextInput
          label="Pick value or type anything"
          placeholder="Pick value or type anything"
          value={value}
          onChange={(event) => {
            setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
            combobox.openDropdown();
            combobox.updateSelectedOptionIndex();
          }}
          onClick={() => combobox.openDropdown()}
          onFocus={() => combobox.openDropdown()}
          onBlur={() => combobox.closeDropdown()}
        />
      </Combobox.Target>

      <Combobox.Dropdown>
        <Combobox.Options>
          {options.length === 0 ? <Combobox.Empty>Nothing found</Combobox.Empty> : options}
        </Combobox.Options>
      </Combobox.Dropdown>
    </Combobox>
  );
}

Example of using Combobox.Target with Button component:

Selected item: Nothing selected
import { useState } from 'react';
import { Button, Combobox, useCombobox, Text, Box } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const [selectedItem, setSelectedItem] = useState<string | null>(null);
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
  });

  const options = groceries.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
      {item}
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  return (
    <>
      <Box mb="xs">
        <Text span size="sm" c="dimmed">
          Selected item:{' '}
        </Text>

        <Text span size="sm">
          {selectedItem || 'Nothing selected'}
        </Text>
      </Box>

      <Combobox
        store={combobox}
        width={250}
        position="bottom-start"
        withArrow
        onOptionSubmit={(val) => {
          setSelectedItem(val);
          combobox.closeDropdown();
        }}
      >
        <Combobox.Target>
          <Button onClick={() => combobox.toggleDropdown()}>Pick item</Button>
        </Combobox.Target>

        <Combobox.Dropdown>
          <Combobox.Options>{options}</Combobox.Options>
        </Combobox.Dropdown>
      </Combobox>
    </>
  );
}

Split events and dropdown targets

In some cases, you might need to use different elements as an events target and as a dropdown. Use Combobox.EventsTarget to add aria-* attributes and keyboard event handlers, and Combobox.DropdownTarget to position the dropdown relative to the target.

You can have as many Combobox.EventsTarget as you need, but only one Combobox.DropdownTarget per Combobox.

Example of using Combobox.EventsTarget and Combobox.DropdownTarget with PillsInput component to create a searchable multiselect component:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { PillsInput, Pill, Combobox, CheckIcon, Group, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
    onDropdownOpen: () => combobox.updateSelectedOptionIndex('active'),
  });

  const [search, setSearch] = useState('');
  const [value, setValue] = useState<string[]>([]);

  const handleValueSelect = (val: string) =>
    setValue((current) =>
      current.includes(val) ? current.filter((v) => v !== val) : [...current, val]
    );

  const handleValueRemove = (val: string) =>
    setValue((current) => current.filter((v) => v !== val));

  const values = value.map((item) => (
    <Pill key={item} withRemoveButton onRemove={() => handleValueRemove(item)}>
      {item}
    </Pill>
  ));

  const options = groceries
    .filter((item) => item.toLowerCase().includes(search.trim().toLowerCase()))
    .map((item) => (
      <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item} active={value.includes(item)}>
        <Group gap="sm">
          {value.includes(item) ? <CheckIcon size={12} /> : null}
          <span>{item}</span>
        </Group>
      </Combobox.Option>
    ));

  return (
    <Combobox store={combobox} onOptionSubmit={handleValueSelect}>
      <Combobox.DropdownTarget>
        <PillsInput onClick={() => combobox.openDropdown()}>
          <Pill.Group>
            {values}

            <Combobox.EventsTarget>
              <PillsInput.Field
                onFocus={() => combobox.openDropdown()}
                onBlur={() => combobox.closeDropdown()}
                value={search}
                placeholder="Search values"
                onChange={(event) => {
                  combobox.updateSelectedOptionIndex();
                  setSearch(event.currentTarget.value);
                }}
                onKeyDown={(event) => {
                  if (event.key === 'Backspace' && search.length === 0) {
                    event.preventDefault();
                    handleValueRemove(value[value.length - 1]);
                  }
                }}
              />
            </Combobox.EventsTarget>
          </Pill.Group>
        </PillsInput>
      </Combobox.DropdownTarget>

      <Combobox.Dropdown>
        <Combobox.Options>
          {options.length > 0 ? options : <Combobox.Empty>Nothing found...</Combobox.Empty>}
        </Combobox.Options>
      </Combobox.Dropdown>
    </Combobox>
  );
}

Update selected option index

updateSelectedOptionIndex handler is required to be called when options list changes. Usually, the options list changes when options are filtered based on the search query. In this case, you need to call updateSelectedOptionIndex in onChange handler of the search input.

Example of using updateSelectedOptionIndex handler in searchable select component:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { InputBase, Combobox, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
  });

  const [value, setValue] = useState<string | null>(null);
  const [search, setSearch] = useState('');

  const shouldFilterOptions = groceries.every((item) => item !== search);
  const filteredOptions = shouldFilterOptions
    ? groceries.filter((item) => item.toLowerCase().includes(search.toLowerCase().trim()))
    : groceries;

  const options = filteredOptions.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
      {item}
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  return (
    <Combobox
      store={combobox}
      onOptionSubmit={(val) => {
        setValue(val);
        setSearch(val);
        combobox.closeDropdown();
      }}
    >
      <Combobox.Target>
        <InputBase
          rightSection={<Combobox.Chevron />}
          rightSectionPointerEvents="none"
          onClick={() => combobox.openDropdown()}
          onFocus={() => combobox.openDropdown()}
          onBlur={() => {
            combobox.closeDropdown();
            setSearch(value || '');
          }}
          placeholder="Search value"
          value={search}
          onChange={(event) => {
            combobox.updateSelectedOptionIndex();
            setSearch(event.currentTarget.value);
          }}
        />
      </Combobox.Target>

      <Combobox.Dropdown>
        <Combobox.Options>
          {options.length > 0 ? options : <Combobox.Empty>Nothing found</Combobox.Empty>}
        </Combobox.Options>
      </Combobox.Dropdown>
    </Combobox>
  );
}

Search input

If you prefer search input inside the dropdown, use Combobox.Search component. To focus the search input, call combobox.focusSearchInput, usually it is done when the dropdown is opened. To prevent focus loss after the dropdown is closed, call combobox.focusTarget:

Selected item: Nothing selected
import { useState } from 'react';
import { Button, Combobox, useCombobox, Text, Box } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const [search, setSearch] = useState('');
  const [selectedItem, setSelectedItem] = useState<string | null>(null);
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => {
      combobox.resetSelectedOption();
      combobox.focusTarget();
      setSearch('');
    },

    onDropdownOpen: () => {
      combobox.focusSearchInput();
    },
  });

  const options = groceries
    .filter((item) => item.toLowerCase().includes(search.toLowerCase().trim()))
    .map((item) => (
      <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
        {item}
      </Combobox.Option>
    ));

  return (
    <>
      <Box mb="xs">
        <Text span size="sm" c="dimmed">
          Selected item:{' '}
        </Text>

        <Text span size="sm">
          {selectedItem || 'Nothing selected'}
        </Text>
      </Box>

      <Combobox
        store={combobox}
        width={250}
        position="bottom-start"
        withArrow
        onOptionSubmit={(val) => {
          setSelectedItem(val);
          combobox.closeDropdown();
        }}
      >
        <Combobox.Target withAriaAttributes={false}>
          <Button onClick={() => combobox.toggleDropdown()}>Pick item</Button>
        </Combobox.Target>

        <Combobox.Dropdown>
          <Combobox.Search
            value={search}
            onChange={(event) => setSearch(event.currentTarget.value)}
            placeholder="Search groceries"
          />
          <Combobox.Options>
            {options.length > 0 ? options : <Combobox.Empty>Nothing found</Combobox.Empty>}
          </Combobox.Options>
        </Combobox.Dropdown>
      </Combobox>
    </>
  );
}

Select first option

Use combobox.selectFirstOption function to select the first option. It is useful if you want to select the first option when user searching for options in the list. If there are no options available, it will do nothing.

import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import { Combobox, TextInput, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
  });

  const [value, setValue] = useState('');
  const shouldFilterOptions = !groceries.some((item) => item === value);
  const filteredOptions = shouldFilterOptions
    ? groceries.filter((item) => item.toLowerCase().includes(value.toLowerCase().trim()))
    : groceries;

  const options = filteredOptions.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
      {item}
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  useEffect(() => {
    // we need to wait for options to render before we can select first one
    combobox.selectFirstOption();
  }, [value]);

  return (
    <Combobox
      onOptionSubmit={(optionValue) => {
        setValue(optionValue);
        combobox.closeDropdown();
      }}
      store={combobox}
    >
      <Combobox.Target>
        <TextInput
          label="Pick value or type anything"
          placeholder="Pick value or type anything"
          value={value}
          onChange={(event) => {
            setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
            combobox.openDropdown();
          }}
          onClick={() => combobox.openDropdown()}
          onFocus={() => combobox.openDropdown()}
          onBlur={() => combobox.closeDropdown()}
        />
      </Combobox.Target>

      <Combobox.Dropdown>
        <Combobox.Options>
          {options.length === 0 ? <Combobox.Empty>Nothing found</Combobox.Empty> : options}
        </Combobox.Options>
      </Combobox.Dropdown>
    </Combobox>
  );
}

Active option

Set active prop on Combobox.Option component to mark it as active. By default, an active option does not have any styles, you can use data-combobox-active data attribute to style it.

combobox.selectActiveOption function selects active option. Usually, it is called when the dropdown is opened:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Input, InputBase, Combobox, useCombobox, CheckIcon, Group } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
    onDropdownOpen: (eventSource) => {
      if (eventSource === 'keyboard') {
        combobox.selectActiveOption();
      } else {
        combobox.updateSelectedOptionIndex('active');
      }
    },
  });

  const [value, setValue] = useState<string | null>('🥦 Broccoli');

  const options = groceries.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item} active={item === value}>
      <Group gap="xs">
        {item === value && <CheckIcon size={12} />}
        <span>{item}</span>
      </Group>
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  return (
    <Combobox
      store={combobox}
      resetSelectionOnOptionHover
      onOptionSubmit={(val) => {
        setValue(val);
        combobox.updateSelectedOptionIndex('active');
      }}
    >
      <Combobox.Target targetType="button">
        <InputBase
          component="button"
          type="button"
          pointer
          rightSection={<Combobox.Chevron />}
          rightSectionPointerEvents="none"
          onClick={() => combobox.toggleDropdown()}
        >
          {value || <Input.Placeholder>Pick value</Input.Placeholder>}
        </InputBase>
      </Combobox.Target>

      <Combobox.Dropdown>
        <Combobox.Options>{options}</Combobox.Options>
      </Combobox.Dropdown>
    </Combobox>
  );
}

Options groups

Render Combobox.Option components inside Combobox.Group to create options group. Combobox.Group label will be automatically hidden if the group does not have any children.

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Input, InputBase, Combobox, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
  });

  const [value, setValue] = useState<string | null>(null);

  return (
    <Combobox
      store={combobox}
      onOptionSubmit={(val) => {
        setValue(val);
        combobox.closeDropdown();
      }}

}

Scrollable list

Set max-height style on either Combobox.Dropdown or Combobox.Options to make the options list scrollable. You can use mah style prop to set max-height.

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Input, InputBase, Combobox, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = [
  '🍎 Apples',
  '🍌 Bananas',
  '🥦 Broccoli',
  '🥕 Carrots',
  '🍫 Chocolate',
  '🍇 Grapes',
  '🍋 Lemon',
  '🥬 Lettuce',
  '🍄 Mushrooms',
  '🍊 Oranges',
  '🥔 Potatoes',
  '🍅 Tomatoes',
  '🥚 Eggs',
  '🥛 Milk',
  '🍞 Bread',
  '🍗 Chicken',
  '🍔 Hamburger',
  '🧀 Cheese',
  '🥩 Steak',
  '🍟 French Fries',
  '🍕 Pizza',
  '🥦 Cauliflower',
  '🥜 Peanuts',
  '🍦 Ice Cream',
  '🍯 Honey',
  '🥖 Baguette',
  '🍣 Sushi',
  '🥝 Kiwi',
  '🍓 Strawberries',
];

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
  });

  const [value, setValue] = useState<string | null>(null);

  const options = groceries.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
      {item}
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  return (
    <Combobox
      store={combobox}
      onOptionSubmit={(val) => {
        setValue(val);
        combobox.closeDropdown();
      }}
    >
      <Combobox.Target>
        <InputBase
          component="button"
          type="button"
          pointer
          rightSection={<Combobox.Chevron />}
          rightSectionPointerEvents="none"
          onClick={() => combobox.toggleDropdown()}
        >
          {value || <Input.Placeholder>Pick value</Input.Placeholder>}
        </InputBase>
      </Combobox.Target>

      <Combobox.Dropdown>
        <Combobox.Options mah={200} style={{ overflowY: 'auto' }}>
          {options}
        </Combobox.Options>
      </Combobox.Dropdown>
    </Combobox>
  );
}

Scrollable list with ScrollArea

You can also use ScrollArea or ScrollArea.Autosize components instead of native scrollbars:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Input, InputBase, Combobox, useCombobox, ScrollArea } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = [
  '🍎 Apples',
  '🍌 Bananas',
  '🥦 Broccoli',
  '🥕 Carrots',
  '🍫 Chocolate',
  '🍇 Grapes',
  '🍋 Lemon',
  '🥬 Lettuce',
  '🍄 Mushrooms',
  '🍊 Oranges',
  '🥔 Potatoes',
  '🍅 Tomatoes',
  '🥚 Eggs',
  '🥛 Milk',
  '🍞 Bread',
  '🍗 Chicken',
  '🍔 Hamburger',
  '🧀 Cheese',
  '🥩 Steak',
  '🍟 French Fries',
  '🍕 Pizza',
  '🥦 Cauliflower',
  '🥜 Peanuts',
  '🍦 Ice Cream',
  '🍯 Honey',
  '🥖 Baguette',
  '🍣 Sushi',
  '🥝 Kiwi',
  '🍓 Strawberries',
];

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
  });

  const [value, setValue] = useState<string | null>(null);

  const options = groceries.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
      {item}
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  return (
    <Combobox
      store={combobox}
      onOptionSubmit={(val) => {
        setValue(val);
        combobox.closeDropdown();
      }}
    >
      <Combobox.Target>
        <InputBase
          component="button"
          type="button"
          pointer
          rightSection={<Combobox.Chevron />}
          rightSectionPointerEvents="none"
          onClick={() => combobox.toggleDropdown()}
        >
          {value || <Input.Placeholder>Pick value</Input.Placeholder>}
        </InputBase>
      </Combobox.Target>

      <Combobox.Dropdown>
        <Combobox.Options>
          <ScrollArea.Autosize type="scroll" mah={200}>
            {options}
          </ScrollArea.Autosize>
        </Combobox.Options>
      </Combobox.Dropdown>
    </Combobox>
  );
}

Hide dropdown

Set hidden prop on Combobox.Dropdown to hide the dropdown. For example, it can be useful when you want to show the dropdown only when there is at least one option available:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Combobox, TextInput, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox();
  const [value, setValue] = useState('');
  const shouldFilterOptions = !groceries.some((item) => item === value);
  const filteredOptions = shouldFilterOptions
    ? groceries.filter((item) => item.toLowerCase().includes(value.toLowerCase().trim()))
    : groceries;

  const options = filteredOptions.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
      {item}
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  return (
    <Combobox
      onOptionSubmit={(optionValue) => {
        setValue(optionValue);
        combobox.closeDropdown();
      }}
      store={combobox}
    >
      <Combobox.Target>
        <TextInput
          label="Pick value or type anything"
          placeholder="Pick value or type anything"
          value={value}
          onChange={(event) => {
            setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
            combobox.openDropdown();
          }}
          onClick={() => combobox.openDropdown()}
          onFocus={() => combobox.openDropdown()}
          onBlur={() => combobox.closeDropdown()}
        />
      </Combobox.Target>

      <Combobox.Dropdown hidden={options.length === 0}>
        <Combobox.Options>{options}</Combobox.Options>
      </Combobox.Dropdown>
    </Combobox>
  );
}

Control dropdown opened state

To control the dropdown opened state, pass opened to useCombobox hook:

Dropdown is opened/closed when button is clicked

import { useState } from 'react';
import { TextInput, Button, Combobox, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const [opened, setOpened] = useState(false);
  const combobox = useCombobox({ opened });

  const options = groceries.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
      {item}
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  return (
    <>
      <Button mb="md" onClick={() => setOpened((o) => !o)}>
        Toggle dropdown
      </Button>

      <Combobox store={combobox}>
        <Combobox.Target>
          <TextInput
            label="Autocomplete"
            description="Dropdown is opened/closed when button is clicked"
            placeholder="Click button to toggle dropdown"
          />
        </Combobox.Target>

        <Combobox.Dropdown>
          <Combobox.Options>{options}</Combobox.Options>
        </Combobox.Dropdown>
      </Combobox>
    </>
  );
}

Popover props

Combobox supports most of Popover props. For example, you can control dropdown position with position prop and disable Floating UI middlewares with middlewares prop:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Input, InputBase, Combobox, useCombobox } from '@mantine/core';

const groceries = ['🍎 Apples', '🍌 Bananas', '🥦 Broccoli', '🥕 Carrots', '🍫 Chocolate'];

function Demo() {
  const combobox = useCombobox({
    onDropdownClose: () => combobox.resetSelectedOption(),
  });

  const [value, setValue] = useState<string | null>(null);

  const options = groceries.map((item) => (
    <Combobox.Option value={item} key={item}>
      {item}
    </Combobox.Option>
  ));

  return (
    <Combobox
      store={combobox}
      position="bottom"
      middlewares={{ flip: false, shift: false }}
      onOptionSubmit={(val) => {
        setValue(val);
        combobox.closeDropdown();
      }}
    >
      <Combobox.Target>
        <InputBase
          component="button"
          type="button"
          pointer
          rightSection={<Combobox.Chevron />}
          rightSectionPointerEvents="none"
          onClick={() => combobox.toggleDropdown()}
        >
          {value || <Input.Placeholder>Pick value</Input.Placeholder>}
        </InputBase>
      </Combobox.Target>

      <Combobox.Dropdown>
        <Combobox.Options>{options}</Combobox.Options>
      </Combobox.Dropdown>
    </Combobox>
  );
}

Without dropdown

You can use Combobox without dropdown. To do so, use Combobox.EventsTarget instead of Combobox.Target:

First
Second
Third
import { useState } from 'react';
import { Combobox, TextInput } from '@mantine/core';

function Demo() {
  const [value, setValue] = useState('');

  return (
    <Combobox onOptionSubmit={setValue}>
      <Combobox.EventsTarget>
        <TextInput
          placeholder="Pick value"
          value={value}
          onChange={(event) => setValue(event.currentTarget.value)}
        />
      </Combobox.EventsTarget>

      <Combobox.Options mt="sm">
        <Combobox.Option value="First">First</Combobox.Option>
        <Combobox.Option value="Second">Second</Combobox.Option>
        <Combobox.Option value="Third">Third</Combobox.Option>
      </Combobox.Options>
    </Combobox>
  );
}
