I'm using actual NodeRed Dashboard (NodeRed 2.1.4 and node-red-dashboard 3.1.2).

I have an issue with the dorpdown node - find the flow below.

I have many entries. As long I select some entries, everything worked fine - same values on the ui as in the payload of the output message. If I filter and then select all, the node isn't working correct. E.g.:

Filter for 2 in the UI -\> dropdown shows 2 and 22 -\> click select all (next to the filter) -\> 2 and 22 are selected in the dropdownlist -\> close drop down -\> 2, 22 are the values shown in the dropdown element, what was expected BUT the payload of the outputmessage contains all vallues 1,11,2,22,3,33, ... .

I think this is a bug or is there an option to change the behavior? Can anybody help?
