when Change event fires and when it doesn't

[Jacques]

I'm using an autocomplete control in a grid, which works well.
When the user types in the field the list is populated from an ajax call, works no problem. 
When one of the list options are selected it updates the grid values in the same row. 

Scenario: If the user clears the autocomplete control by highlighting the text, pressing delete and then tabbing out of the field we need to clear the current grid row values. 
ALSO, when the user selects a valid value we're adding a new row below the current one for the user to use. (I.e. dynamically growing the grid). 

So, we bind to the select event and on a valid selection we add the new row. This works.
We added a change event to the autocomplete control and it fires in the above mentioned scenario, but if the user selects a valid option, then highlights the text, types in something else and then selects an option from the resulting list, the select event fires, but not the change event. 

Why would that be?

Hello Jacques,

Do you observe the described problem in our "Events" online demo?

If yes, please provide exact step-by-step instructions, as I was not able to reproduce it, based on the above information. If the change event is fired as expected, please double-check and debug that it is not fired in your scenario and then provide a runnable example including the Grid with some dummy data.
