Check out the walk-through given below on how to use a Combobox filter component in the Designer.
Combo Box is used to filter data on any associated components. Selecting an item from the drop down menu will change the data displayed in the associated components.

The user can get the reflection of the chart by enabling the shadow option.
The user can also change the color and increase/ decrease the transparency of the shadow.
The user can change the height, width, top and left position of the combo box filter component.
Font color-size-weight-family can be adjusted from the General Properties.
The user can select between different 'Selection' options.
If selection is default, then no checkboxes will appear, directly user need to select a value by scrolling.
If the selection is 'Single' then we can search one value and select. It is used when we have lots of values to select.
If the selection is 'Multiple', then more than one value can be selected.
If the user sets a value in selected index, that value gets displayed initially in the filter. In this scenario the user needs to enable the notify GV update.
Please Note: If initial visibility is not enabled, then the chart won’t be available for the first preview.
In this section user can set the Rollover color, Selection color, Background color, and Chrome Color.
If user needs to see the title, then enable that option. Given a title that user wants to see along with the filter values in description field.
Hierarchical Combo Box is similar to Check Box and Combo Box but here the list will be arranged in the hierarchical manner and users will be allowed to select multiple items simultaneously.
