Hi,

I have a question around the controlbox feature in Kibana. Currently it is limited to 10 items but like to increase that to say 100 options when clicked on drill down. I am unable to see all the results and select.  
How can I change this? I tried the TOPN setting in the Management portion of Kibana but no result.

Hello Jeroen,

I don't believe that's currently possible as our dropdowns are standardized for use throughout Kibana.

You could submit an issue on github as a feature request. If you have a specific dropdown you're having trouble with, we could potentially take a look at different options there!

Thanks,  
Aaron
