Hi,

I am trying to add a control in a control visualization where the field type is a non string (is an integer) so "Dynamic Options" is off and I have to insert the size.

- Is there any value ("all" for example) that will lead the visualization to take into consideration all the distinguished values that the field has?
- Is there any upper bound for this number?

Hi there,

you can try to put there a huge (unreachable for that type of field) number and set

```
kibana.autocompleteTimeout: whatever_very_high_value
kibana.autocompleteTerminateAfter: whatever_very_high_value

```

in the `kibana.yml` but it might have consequences, so be sure of what you're doing.
