Full list by clicking

[Jorge]

Hello!
I would like to show the full list search when clicked within the control RadSearchbox, is it possible?
Without having to type anything ...

I also wonder if the use ButtonCommand I could create different searches. Example: Clicking the Globe Button I would use the criterion X.
To Favorites I would use the criterion Y.
Using the functionality I asked above. Clicking already carry automatically, without the need to type anything ...

Hi Jorge,

 
RadSearchBox does not support the functionality to click on it and see all the items because it actually does not have items collection. If you are looking for such functionality you will have to use RadComboBox as in this on-line demo for example.

As for your second question- yes of course you can use it as for some other custom search by using onButtonCommand event. 

Hope this information will be helpful.

Got!
The problem is that with the RadComboBox'm having performance difficulties. When I have many items it takes to filter ... As I'm typing
How can I improve this performance? Because I noticed that the RadSearchBox is faster at filtering.

Hello Jorge,

The best approach to optimize the performance speed of Telerik RadComboBox when using huge amount of items is using the load-on-demand feature.  The load-on-demand mechanism loads the items only when the user types or clicks in the field or the drop-arrow image. It filters the Items server-side before they are loaded in the control and the Filter feature performs filtering at client-side.
And I recommend you to retrieve data in portions - with use of ShowMoreResultsBox and VirtualScrolling options.

Thanks,
Princy.
