[Solved] ComboBox Disable User Input

[Takaya213]

Hi

How does one stop a user from being able to type in the ComboBox header?

The ComboBox is using a custom skin and has its information pulled from DB.

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="ddnSubSegmentations" EnableEmbeddedSkins="false" Skin="CustomSkin" runat="server" Width="250" AutoPostBack="True" OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddnSubSegmentations_IndexChanged">
</telerik:RadComboBox>

We have tried AllowCustomText="False" and EnableTextSelection="false".

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Takaya,

This is not a normal behavior and you shouldn't be able to type in the RadComboBox if AllowCustomText is set to false. Can you provide more information on this issue like if you are doing any configuration to the ComboBox from code behind or do you use load on demand?

Kind regards,

Hi

Thanks for the reply.

I found it that it was set in the code behind to true, but when i set it to false it removes the custom header that we specified for the ComboBox.

Anyway to add a custom header and have the item uneditable?

Thanks

Hi,

Could you please clarify what you mean by "custom header"? By default the user should not be able to type in RadComboBox.
