How can I remove the "Search more... " option from a many to many field?

Question

If I show the many2many field with the widget many2many_tags the option "Search more..." appears in the drop-down menu. How can I avoid it?

<field name="groups_id" 
       widget="many2many_tags"  
       create="0" 
       options="{'no_create_edit': True,'no_quick_create':True,'no_create':True,'no_open':True}"/>

Is there a way to remove the "Search more... " option?

Answer 1

You have some options:

• You can use the widget="selection" if it is a many2one field.

• You can install the module web_m2x_options, but you should write a limit in this case like this:

  <field name="groups_id" 
         options="{'limit': 10, 'create': false, 'create_edit': false}"/>
  

• As an alternative, you can also use the many2many_checkboxes widget:

  <field name="location_ids" widget="many2many_checkboxes"/>
  

  You can even show the checkboxes in two columns as I have written here (solution for Odoo 10 and 11)
