Hi,
We are using filtering controls in our dashboards, specifically "Options List".
We've noticed that the max number of entries shown in the dropdown is 10.
Is there a way to increase this value ?
The [following topic](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/increase-controlbox-dropdown-options/163476) dates from 2019 and brings up a similar issue. I'm not sure if it's been worked on since.
Elastic version: 8.5.2
Thanks

Unfortunately, it is not possible at this moment to change the number of results. There is a feature request for this though, so feel free to include any additional feedback or subscribe for updates

> It might be possible to add server-side pagination to the Options List dropdown rather than allowing the user to configure the number of results. This will allow the user to page through the available options, up to 10000 without affecting the speed of the initial search term query.
