[Solved] ComboBox in Grid and OnClientSelectedIndexChanged

[Andreas Kaech]

Hi Telerik,
I want to reorder the rows of a grid with the help of a ComboBox in each row (telerik:GridTemplateColumn).
And here my problem:
I need something like ComboBox.selectedIndex += 1
But in your Client-Side API I've found only
var items = combo.get_items();
var incItem=combo.get_selectedIndex()+1;
var item = items.getItem(incItem);
item.select();
The issue here is, that each item.select() 
triggers OnClientSelectedIndexChanged.
Is there a possibility to change the selected index without triggering an event?

I hope you understand my problem ;-)

Best regards,
Andreas

Hello Andreas ,

Please try the following code:

var items = combo.get_items();
var incItem=combo.get_selectedIndex()+1;
var item = items.getItem(incItem);
combo.set_text(item.get_text());
combo.set_value(item.get_value());

Hope this helps.
