# Single-select list

When you create a single-select list, a control filter widget named "***Single-select List (chosen\_column)***" with two nested lists **Include** and **Exclude**, and the list of all available values for the selected column will be displayed.

### Creating a single-select list

1. From the required Business View, select the dimension for which you want to apply filters.
2. Click on the pencil icon to rename the multi-select control filter.
3. To sort the filter values, click on the sorting icon to sort the values in ascending or descending order.
4. To search for a specific value, start typing the value in the search bar provided and the values matching your input will be displayed.
5. **Include** list displays the value considered for filter. **Exclude** list displays the list of excluded values. By default, **Include** list will be selected.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Unlike a multi-select filter, only one value can be selected for a single-select filter.
{% endhint %}

### Selecting the value

1. Once the required value is selected, click on **Apply** to apply the filter or click on **Undo** to revert to the previously saved state.
2. The filter will be applied to all the charts in the Vizpad that were created using the specific Business View, and a global filter pill will be created that reflects the applied control filter.

{% hint style="info" %}
The list of available values will display the first 300 values. Further scrolling will display the remaining values.
{% endhint %}
