On some user event I want to select option by id. I manage to do it with MVVM, but the input text is not updated to data-field-value but remains a data-value-field.

It is hard to explain, so I prepare a demo. Just wait for 2 seconds. The text is 1, but it should be option 1.

Hi Matjaz,

the Autocomplete widget does not support this behavior. Unlike the dropdownlist, it does not have the concept of a data value field configuration as it accepts free text input. In case you want to implement that behavior, you may consider using the dropdownlist widget instead.

Hello Matjaz,

This behavior is not supported by the AutoComplete widget. You may choose some of the other widgets (ComboBox, or MultiSelect) for that purpose.
