No Items displayed in the dropdown with new custom style

[Saravanan]

I'v setup applied a new custom style to a RadAutoCompleteBox in order to change its visual design. I would also like to customize its RadAutoCompleteBoxItems (e.g. change the Background and foreground , Border etc). How can this be achieved?  But if I'm searching for some items, no entries are shown in the drop down.

Thanks,
Sharan

Hello Saravanan,

Looks like some part from your custom style is missing, please make sure everything from the default style is present. Besides, you can customize the items in the DropDown through the DropDownItemTemplate property of the AutoCompleteBox. Please check the Customizing the DropDownItemTemplate article from our online help documentation for more details.

Hope this will help you.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, I customized my DropDownItenTemplate based on your link, still no use, If you can download my source file and  you will know what I am trying to say, no problem with the DropDownItenTemplate, Problem when you search something in RadAutoCompleteBox  it is not bringing up the DropDownItenTemplate.  when you remove the style property from the RadAutoCompleteBox everything is fine.

Please see my attachments below.

Hello Saravanan,

The dropdown is missing because the element that holds the items doesn't have its ItemsSource set. This is the ListBox named PART_ListBox in the RadAutoCompleteBox ControlTemplate you just need to set the ItemsSource the following way and it will start working as expected:

ItemsSource="{TemplateBinding FilteredItems}"

Hope this will help you.
