Kendo Auto complete Combo box not focusing on the first element. But works when hovering with mouse

[vendhan]

I am having a kendo autocomplete combo box, when typing out the keys i get the list of options. But it is not highlighting (focusing) the first option. when i try to hover with mouse it is focused. Adding the sample screenshots.

Kindly do the needful. Thanks in  advance

It is working fine with the dropdown

But for the autocomplete

 

When i hover this with cursor it is working. This is our expectation when typing in the autocomplete.

Hello, Vendhan,

Please set the highlightFirst option to true. Its default value is false, but true for the ComboBox.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
