I have set the AutoComplete feature for the RadCombobox and this feature while typing a single letter also triggers the selectionchanged.  In my scenario, I want to decide after I finished searching for the element I need and then trigger the selectionchanged event.  Is it possible?

Hello Rajagopal,

You should use the properties CanAutocompleteSelectItems set to False and OpenDropDownOnFocus - to True to reach the described behavior. 

You can also take a look at our new RadAutoCompleteBox control - setting its AutoCompleteMode property to Append might be suitable in your case. You can find more information about it following this

Hi,
I have a radcombobox placed in a telerik RadGridView's column header and when I set the selectedIndex as 0 in .xaml, it is not triggering the selectionchangedevent through the command and command parameter while loading.  But, when I changed the selection then it is triggering.  Could you please let me know the way of firing the selectionchanged by setting the selectedindex or any other equivalent property?

Thanks
Raj

Hello Raj,

We were able to reproduce the problem in a sample project and we found a workaround for the problem - if you could set SelectedIndex in the RadComboBox.Loaded event, the command is executed. You can find attached a sample project that workarounds the issue.

We logged the bug in our PITS here - http://www.telerik.com/support/pits.aspx#/public/wpf/14216 and we will investigate the problem in our further releases. I am glad to update your telerik points as well. 

Hope this helps.

Regards,
George
