DataSource isn't updated if ItemTemplate is specified.

[Imran Shaik]

I am facing a problem with SfComboBox and ItemTemplate. 

If SfComboBox is using an ItemTemplate update the DataSource isn't reflected on the UI. 

I used the example that was given on another thread, but it doesn't work for me because I am using an ItemTemplate for the Sf Combo Box. 

I am using this example, when using with DisplayMemberPath, it work but it doesn't work with ItemTemplate.

Even the DisplayMemberPath is only working if IsEditableMode = true. 

Here is what I am doing. 

               <comboBox:SfComboBox DataSource="{Binding Countries, Mode=TwoWay}"

                                         Watermark="{extensions:Translate Label.Country}"

                                         AllowFiltering="True"

                                         NoResultsFoundText="Empty"

                                         SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedCountry, Mode=TwoWay}"

                                         DisplayMemberPath="Name" />

                    

                    <comboBox:SfComboBox IsEnabled="{Binding States, Converter={StaticResource IsNotNullConverter}}"

                                         DataSource="{Binding States}"

                                         Watermark="{extensions:Translate Label.States}"

                                         NoResultsFoundText="Empty"

                                         IsEditableMode="True"

                                         AllowFiltering="True"

                                         SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedState, Mode=TwoWay}"

                                         DisplayMemberPath="Name" />

The fix will be included in our Volume 4 2019 main release which is expected to be rolled out by Mid of December 2019.

 

Query 2: DisplayMemberPath is only working if IsEditableMode = true. 

 

We would like to let you know that the reason for displaying the desired view on second loaded SfComboBox is not because of enabling the IsEditableMode property even If you are setting false for IsEditableMode will also display the same. This strange behavior also occurred with the same root cause of Query 1 issue.

 

We suggested you to use the provided patch for this issue and let us know whether your reported issues are resolved or not.
