Combobox

Preview Pane

A picker with a preview pane on the right: it holds the description of the option under the active row, updating on hover and arrow keys, not only after a choice.

React + Tailwind, shadcn-compatible: press “Copy for AI” and your Cursor or Claude Code agent installs it with the shadcn CLI.

What you can change

  • the options through options: a name and a description for each
  • the initial choice through defaultValue
  • the empty-result text through emptyLabel

A link for your AI agent: preview, code and instructions.

FAQ

How do I add Preview Pane with Cursor or Claude Code?
Press “Copy for AI” on this page and paste it into your agent's chat. The instruction contains the shadcn CLI install command, the dependencies and what to keep, so the agent installs this exact component instead of recreating a lookalike.
What does Preview Pane depend on?
No npm packages beyond React and Tailwind CSS.
What can I change in Preview Pane?
Adapt: the options through options: a name and a description for each; the initial choice through defaultValue; the empty-result text through emptyLabel. Keep as installed: the local --vibeui-combobox-025-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens; binding the panel to matches[active] rather than value: the preview must scroll with the arrow keys before a choice is confirmed; role="region" with aria-live="polite" on the panel — a changing description has to be announced, not only redrawn.
Is Preview Pane free?
Yes. The preview is open without an account; with a free account you can copy up to 20 components a month.

For developers

npx shadcn@latest add https://vibeui.club/r/pro/combobox-025.json

This command needs a signed link: sign in and open “Component source” below — it issues a working link valid for 30 minutes. All install options

Technical notes

The component is self-contained: one file, zero dependencies, its own palette in the local --vibeui-combobox-025-* variables. Client component: the query, the value and the cursor live in useState. The layout is a flex-wrap of two blocks: the list on the left and the preview pane on the right, and at a narrow width they wrap below one another with no media queries. The pane shows the description of the row under the cursor (matches[active]) rather than only of the confirmed value — so the preview can be scrolled with the arrow keys before Enter is pressed. The pane is a role="region" with aria-live="polite", and the list is a role="listbox" with aria-activedescendant on the filter field.
