createSearchChoice: How would one achieve this Select2 feature in ui-Select?

[kimardenmiller]

Is there an equivalent way to achieve what Select2 does in createSearchChoice?

via the tagging function https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-select/wiki/ui-select

Excellent. Thank you 😄

Does tagging require multiple?

All the examples I'm finding uses it. What if we only need single-select?

@kimardenmiller For what it's worth: No it does not. Try pressing ( , comma) after tagging Edit: Also ( , comma) only worked with angular 1.3.0 for me. (didn't try all versions though just 1.3.2, 1.3.15, 1.3.16, and 1.4.1)

@brianfeister Why does (Enter) work as a tagging token by default on multiple, and it does not work on single; even if defined in tagging-tokens?
