Is there a built-in way or a property to keep selected items in the dropdown list with a check mark (in 8.1.38)?

Hi everyone,
I’m using Ignition 8.1.38 with a Perspective view and the standard multi selector dropdown component.
props.options is a simple list of {value, label}
props.multiSelect = true
props.wrapMultiSelectValues = false
props.search.enabled = true

Current behavior:
When I select an item in the dropdown, it is removed from the dropdown list and only shown in the “selected values” area of the component.
What I would like:
Instead of disappearing from the list, I want the selected item to stay visible inside the dropdown menu with a check mark (or some visual indicator) next to it – similar to typical multi-select dropdowns in web UIs.
Questions:
Is there a built-in way or a property to keep selected items in the dropdown list with a check mark (in 8.1.38)?

I do not think so, no.

You would have to create a custom module and create this component or hack the existing one with javascript injection similar to [FEATURE] Add ability to add Icon and styling to Perspective Dropdown items - Ignition - Inductive Automation Forum
