This problem occurs with the latest 2012 Q1 release.

If I use the Silverlight toolkit extension method GetItemsAndContainers (System.Windows.Controls.Toolkit.dll) in the DropDownOpened event, the first time this event fires I get 0 items back from this call. It occurs if you bind an IEnumerable to ItemsSource or even explicitly declare strings inside RadComboBoxItem tags.

private void RadComboBox_DropDownOpened(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

RadComboBox rcb = (RadComboBox) sender;

IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<object, DependencyObject>> itemsContainers = rcb.GetItemsAndContainers();

RunOpenCount.Text = itemsContainers.Count().ToString();

}

This worked in 2011 Q3 and quite a few prior releases too.
