Removing the select all option in a custom field

Hello, hopefully this is an easy question to solve. 

 

I need to add a field on a custom form using the drop down option.  We want the user to be able to select more than one option, but I don't want the option to select "all" to appear.  It seems like the "select all" option is baked into the field.  Is there anyway to remove it?  Or does anyone have a suggested workaround? 

 

Thank you.

I totally agree and have gotten complaints on that from users.  Here's one on the idea board to upvote:

Have you tried using the checkbox display type?

Yes, it is frustrating because "all" doesn't show up when you use the preview view in the custom form. It only shows up when you actually use the form.

You're right, it is confusing.
