ComboBox In RibbonView Scroll Issue

[Scott Michetti]

Hello, a comboox in the RibbonView control will close if I use the up and down arrows on the scroll bar. This occurs when I release the mouse button. This makes it impossible to scroll with the arrows and then select an item. If I grab the scroll bar itself, I am able to select an item. Is there a way to prevent this?

Thanks
Scott

Hello Scott,

It turns out that there is a bug in out RibbonView control, related to the use of a RadRibbonComboBox/ RadComboBox inside the RibbonView. We created work item for it and you could track it's progress or vote for its resolution here.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Kind regards,

Hello Kiril,

Please fix this as soon as possible! We use RadRibbonComboBox in our Ribbons at several places and they have an important role in our app and are used quite often by our users. This is a heavy usability penalty for our app!

Also, the RadRibbonComboBox is closed by a click on the scrollbar above or beneath the slider! It only works when you use the slider to scroll !!!

Regards
Felix

Hello Felix,

Please accept our apology for this inconvenience - the issue is scheduled to be fixed for the next Q1 2013. But please keep tracking the PITS item as this way you'll be notified if we mange to include the fix in any of our weekly internal builds before the official release.

Hello,

The PITS status is "resolved" but the bug still remains: the list closes when you click on the up/down arrow or inside the scrollbar of the combobox. Only the slider and mouse wheel are working.
I'm using the lastest release (RadControls for WPF Q2 2013 SP1)
