Hello,

I want to create a search bar text field object in vision. I have added multiple machine screen buttons

So, when I type a machine name into the search text field, the search bar shows a button with the same name as what I'm looking for. How to configure in the text filed object?

For example. I create multiple buttons for the different machine screens.  
Button 1: Flour Mill Area K-Tron Machine (70989)  
Button 2: Outside Utility Ammonia Compressor No. 1 (70456)  
To  
Button 100: Inside the Product Pouch Pack Machine (70347)

Screenshot for reference.

You should be using a template repeater for the list of results.  
Then implementing your search is a relatively simple matter of, whenever the text in the search bar changes, updating the dataset populating the repeater with a filtered list of results.
