Modern control Combo box, selecting multiple items

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 304
I'm using a modern combo box control in my form control that is connected to a SharePoint list.  The control is to select multiple people.  The Items property is: 
Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm: Self.SearchText}) // Add search results
 
select multiple is on, allow searching is on.  
 
The behaviour is incorrect though.  When I select the first person, it's fine.  When i select the subsequent person, it forgets the first person I selected.   
 
Does anyone have a workaround for what seems like a bug in the modern control?

    Modern Controls are still buggy and really should not be used in prod apps - I suggest you use a Classic item - it will work as expected.
