List - List with Search Bar

To add a search bar to the List and enable the search functionality, do the following:

Set the searchEnabled property to true.
Specify the searchExpr property. It is used to compare the search string against a specific field in your data objects. In this example, the search string is compared against the "Name" field.
Use the searchMode property to specify whether list items should start with, contain, or match the search string. In this example, you can use the drop-down menu under the List to change the searchMode.
