Filtering Highlight Matched Text

[Buzz]

I think it would be cool to have the filtered choices in my combobox to have the matching text highlighted.

For example:
[at         ]
Documentation
Ultimate
Administrator
Cat in the Hat

Any suggestions on how to go about this?

Hi Buzz,

I am afraid this cannot be achieved with the current version of the RadComboBox. However, I have added your suggestion in PITS. You can view it here. You can vote for it, track its status and if it receives enough requests it will be implemented.
You could use the build in filtering of the ComboBox instead - please refer to this help article for more information.

Kind regards,

Hi Alain,

The item has been migrated in our Feedback portal, you can track and vote for it on the following link:
http://feedback.telerik.com/Project/143/Feedback/Details/112964-highlight-the-searched-symbols-in-the-radcombobox-items

However what I can also suggest would be to check the following example for AutoCompleteBox which demonstrates how to achieve such a functionality using the control:

Hope this will help you.
