I am unable to set the height of the drop down any larger than 1 header row and 3 lines using the following assignment
ctlRadMultiColumnComboBox.MultiColumnComboBoxElement.DropDownHeight = 500.
So is this a bug.
ctlRadMultiColumnComboBox.MultiColumnComboBoxElement.DropDownHeight = 500.

I am using the Q1 2010 release and setting the DropDownHeight on a radCombobox control has no effect.
Was this bug addressed in the Q1 2010 release? If not then can you please provide a workaround to set the drop down height?
Thanks,
Sean

Hi Sean,
Thank you for writing.
Actually we have addressed the drop-down height issue and in my tests the height was applied as expected. However, there could be something specific in your scenario that causes the issue. Please, open a new support ticket and send me a small example project that demonstrates your scenario. This will help me to investigate the case in details and provide you with further assistance.
Best wishes,

This doesn't appear to have been fixed in Q1 2010. However, I did find a workaround (for anyone who is interested).
You have to force the drop down height in the DropDownOpening event of the combobox:
Hope this helps.

Hi Sean,
Thank you very much for sharing your work-around with us. However I highly recommend you upgrading to the latest version: Q1 2011 (2011.1.11.315). It contains numerous improvements and bug-fixes and also DropDownHeight property works as expected.

Martin,
I appreciate your suggestion, however the application that I am working on has around 35,000 lines of code. We rely heavily on the Telerik controls, and we have had to do A LOT of customization and workarounds for bugs with the controls. It is simply not feasible to ask your users to upgrade to the latest version every quarter when a new release comes out. This would require several weeks worth of coding and testing from my team to ensure that everything still works as intended. Also, it has been my experience that when a new release comes out there are other bugs that have been introduced, so then we have to find workarounds for those issues. I suspect that a large number of your users are in a similar situation, where they can't simply upgrade every 3-6 months.
Overall, I think that Telerik does a great job with all the tools you provide, but that is one complaint that I have. You end up getting "locked in" to a particular version of the controls, and due to all the workarounds (most provided by Telerik here on the Forums and through support tickets) it is very cumbersome to upgrade.
I was just including the workaround for anyone who in the same boat as me.
Thanks,
Sean

Hello Sean,
Thank you for your feedback.
I agree you have some strong points here and I can understand upgrading to the latest version could be a costly process in terms of time and resources. However our target is constantly refining our products and there are vast improvements between latest version and the one you are currently using. That is why I am recommending to consider moving forward and upgrading your solution. If you decide to do that we are wiling to provide you with required support on any difficulties, which you could encounter.
Nevertheless, I would like to thank you for sharing your work-around for the older version with the community and I am updating your Telerik points for that. Do not hesitate to contact us again if you have any other questions.
