Hi, I use the dropdown menu to select from a wide range of devices.

To save space on the dashboard, it would be helpful to have an option to display only the selected entries in the dropdown menu itself, as in Dashboard 1,

rather than displaying all entries.

Hi, that is not unreasonable.

Please raise an issue in the [dashboard issue tracker](https://github.com/FlowFuse/node-red-dashboard/issues) so it does not get lost.

PS, please tag any posts related to `@flowfuse/node-red-dashboard` with `#dashboard-2` (#dashboard-2) as it can be confusing sometimes which dashboard a user is talking about. Thanks. _(I have done it for you this time)_
