# Select
When there are plenty of options, use a drop-down menu to display and select desired ones.
:::tip
After version ^(2.5.0), the default width of `el-select` changed to `100%`. When used in a inline form, the width will collapse. In order to display the width properly, you need to give `el-select` a specific width (eg: [Example](https://github.com/element-plus/element-plus/issues/15834#issuecomment-1936919229)) .
:::
## Basic usage
:::demo `v-model` is the value of `el-option` that is currently selected.
select/basic-usage
:::
## Options attribute ^(2.10.5)
:::demo Shortcut from basic `el-option` usage. You can customize the alias of the `options` through the `props` attribute.
select/options
:::
## Disabled option
:::demo Set the value of `disabled` in `el-option` to `true` to disable this option.
select/disabled-option
:::
## Disabled select
Disable the whole component.
:::demo Set `disabled` of `el-select` to make it disabled.
select/disabled
:::
## Clearable
You can clear Select using a clear icon.
:::demo Set `clearable` attribute for `el-select` and a clear icon will appear.
select/clearable
:::
## Sizes
:::demo Add `size` attribute to change the size of Select. In addition to the default size, there are two other options: `large`, `small`.
select/size
:::
## Basic multiple select
Multiple select uses tags to display selected options.
:::demo Set `multiple` attribute for `el-select` to enable multiple mode. In this case, the value of `v-model` will be an array of selected options. By default the selected options will be displayed as Tags. You can collapse them to a text by using `collapse-tags` attribute. You can check them when mouse hover collapse text by using `collapse-tags-tooltip` attribute.
select/multiple
:::
## Custom template
You can customize HTML templates for options.
:::demo Insert customized HTML templates into the slot of `el-option`.
select/custom-template
:::
## Header of the dropdown ^(2.4.3)
You can customize the header of the dropdown.
:::demo Use slot to customize the content.
select/custom-header
:::
## Footer of the dropdown ^(2.4.3)
You can customize the footer of the dropdown.
:::demo Use slot to customize the content.
select/custom-footer
:::
## Grouping
Display options in groups.
:::demo Use `el-option-group` to group the options, and its `label` attribute stands for the name of the group.
select/grouping
:::
## Option filtering
You can filter options for your desired ones.
:::demo Adding `filterable` to `el-select` enables filtering. By default, Select will find all the options whose `label` attribute contains the input value. If you prefer other filtering strategies, you can pass the `filter-method`. `filter-method` is a `Function` that gets called when the input value changes, and its parameter is the current input value.
select/filterable
:::
## Remote Search
Enter keywords and search data from server.
:::demo Set the value of `filterable` and `remote` with `true` to enable remote search, and you should pass the `remote-method`. `remote-method` is a `Function` that gets called when the input value changes, and its parameter is the current input value. Note that if `el-option` is rendered with the `v-for` directive, you should add the `key` attribute for `el-option`. Its value needs to be unique, such as `item.value` in the following example.
select/remote-search
:::
## Create new items
Create and select new items that are not included in select options
:::demo By using the `allow-create` attribute, users can create new items by typing in the input box. Note that for `allow-create` to work, `filterable` must be `true`. This example also demonstrates `default-first-option`. When this attribute is set to `true`, you can select the first option in the current option list by hitting enter without having to navigate with mouse or arrow keys.
select/allow-create
:::
## Use value-key attribute
If the binding value of Select is an object, make sure to assign `value-key` as its unique identity key name.
:::demo By using the `value-key` attribute, data with duplicate labels can be properly handled. The value of the `label` property is duplicated, but the option can be identified through the `id`.
select/value-key
:::
## Custom Tag ^(2.5.0)
You can customize tags.
:::demo Insert customized tags into the slot of `el-select`. `collapse-tags`, `collapse-tags-tooltip`, `max-collapse-tags` will not work.
select/custom-tag
:::
## Custom Loading ^(2.5.2)
Override loading content.
:::demo
select/custom-loading
:::
## Empty Values ^(2.7.0)
If you want to support empty string, please set `empty-values` to `[null, undefined]`.
If you want to change the clear value to `null`, please set `value-on-clear` to `null`.
:::demo
select/empty-values
:::
## Custom Label ^(2.7.4)
You can customize label.
:::demo
select/custom-label
:::
## Select API
