Hi All

Is there a way i can Enable Type Ahead functionality in Kibana Dashboard, search pannel.

This thing i want to do for all the string columns, so that user upfront knows what all data is available in the dashboard as he keeps typing on it....

Please let me know if some one has tried it out

Regards  
Ritesh
