I’m trying to create a canvas control that works as a drop-down select list for a table. However, I seem to only be able to do that for tables that reference the original table, but not the original table itself. My only option when creating a canvas control is a text search one. Is there a way to do this?
Hi @Tim_Richardson1,
please check if the changes did what you desired and let me know if you need any more help.

You solved it, thank you!!
For future reference, the solution is kind of weird. By default, when you create a canvas control to filter a table by a text column it will create a “text search” control. There’s seemingly no way to edit the control to change the type of control it is.
So instead, create a canvas control as a relation to the table you’re trying to filter. Then create a formula filter for the table that recreates what the canvas control would do: thisRow.Contains([canvas control name]) or Matches instead of Contains if it’s a single select.
