Tell us what you are trying to do?
I have a View with 3 search filters that are dropdowns. I would like to add Search icon, that would "switch" to text search field (and hiding dropdowns), so the user could type text and search through the same data. Is there a way to do that?

What is the link to your site?

Hi David,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Unfortunately this is not something that is natively possible with our Toolset plugins, however I managed to find an example that should be able to guide you through this.

Here is the example below.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
