Textbox value is overriden by selected item as we navigate the dropdown list

Is there a way to limit the textbox value to be changed only when a selection is made?

Let's say I type sa in the multiselect email sample in visual studio, it shows this

but when I do down the dropdown list, my "sa" is automatically changed to the name in the selection

Expected behaviour is to keep whatever text I had entered like this:

Hi Steve 

 

Currently, we don’t have support to restrict the text override while navigating SuggestionBox items in WPF SfTextBoxExt, so we created a feature request to "Provide Support to Restrict the Text Override While Navigating SuggestionBox Items in WPF SfTextBoxExt ". Please find the link below to track the status of the feature implementation. 

 

Feedback link: 65149 

 

Please cast your vote to make it count. We will prioritize the features every release based on the demands, and we do not have an immediate plan to implement this feature since we have committed to already planned work. So, this feature will be available in any of our upcoming releases. 

 

If you have any more specifications/suggestions for the feature request, you can add them as a comment in the portal. We will share the release details in the feedback itself. 


Regards,
