For example, to get ability for using icons instead text in dropdowns.
As be honestly, I don't know.
But I have real task - to change DropDown "All Words" on icon (like settings).
So, I asked - how to do this using overrides.
It's not possible.
Right?

Hello

difficut ?

1. you can use Joomla language overrides manager

override the language string
and use
Code:
<span class="some-icon-class"></span>

2. Use CSS to hide the drop down arrow
Code:
.filter_container_of_the _select ... { display: none; ... etct }

Good idea.
But If I replace language variable it will replaced on all other filters, and in dropdown list:



Ok, this is not hot issue. I'll think about how else to do this.

Hello

about impoving it
- above you suggested that we only change its appearance when closed

do you suggest some improvement when its open too ?
i mean should the options be different or have icon, or have different language strings ?

It is how responsive elements works:

Hello

i think i understand you now

- you want the currently selected text e.g. "ALL words" not to be shown
instead an "Cog" icon will show

Also besides the above, (which i have understood)
you suggest to be able to hide the module via a more-options icon (3 horizontal lines icon) ?
