ComboBoxAdv Selected Item Tab key

[Ben]

If I use the autocomplete feature of a comboboxadv so the list style is drop down and i select an item with the keyboard and then navigate to a different control using the tab key, the selected item for the combo box adv that was left is undefined. This occurs using 1.6.1.8

Thanks

Hi Ben

We were unable to reproduce the problem you describe above using Essential Suite 1.6.1.8. Can you post some more details like say a sample or steps to reproduce this in one of the samples that ship with Essential Tools so that we can take a look?

Arun Sorry that I didn''t provide enough information. Attached is a sample. To reproduce the error, type 1 and press tab, or 2 or 3 followed by tab. The mouse cannot be used as it will not reproduce the error, nor will navigating through the list using arrows. >Hi Ben > >We were unable to reproduce the problem you describe above using Essential Suite 1.6.1.8.

Hi Ben,

Thanks for the sample. Here is what you need to do to address this in the comboBoxAdv1_SelectionChangeCommitted event:

this.comboBoxAdv1.UpdatePopupControl();
MessageBox.Show ("Index: "+ this.comboBoxAdv1.SelectedIndex.ToString( +"Text: "+this.comboBoxAdv1.Text.ToString());

You need to update the popup control to update the SelectedIndex.

Hi, I came across same problem before. http://www.syncfusion.com/support/Forums/message.aspx?MessageID=6982 You have to call comboBoxAdv1.UpdatePopupControl(); in your SelectionChangeCommitted event. This is very misleading. cheers, - Reddy
