Hi Guy,
In order to achieve the described behavior when the AutoCompleteBox gets the focus you will need to customize the FilteringBehavior of the control in such a way that it returns all the items from the ItemsSource of the control when the SearchText is empty and then call the Populate() method of control in the GotFocus event.
You can download our similar SDK example OpenWithDropDownButton which demonstrates the same scenario but on button Click event. All you need to change in that example to make it work when the control is focused is move the:
line of code to the GotFocus event of the RadAutoCompleteBox control. Hope this is helpful.

Hi
To achieve the desired behavior the following code should be added to GotFocus event.
Popup popup = (Popup)this.RadAutoCompleteBox.Template.FindName("PART_Popup", this.RadAutoCompleteBox);
this.RadAutoCompleteBox.Populate(this.RadAutoCompleteBox.SearchText);
popup.IsOpen = true;
Thanks.

Hi Kapil,
I'd ask you to post the question in the ASP.NET AJAX forums instead.
Thank you for the understanding.

Hi,
I expanded my Dropdown with a click effect like this:
But now, if the dropdown was opened like this, you can move the window and the dropdown stays opened and does not move with the window. What´s the mistake?
Thanks!
I expanded my Dropdown with a click effect like this:
<
telerik:RadAutoCompleteBox
x:Name

KeyUp
=
"OnKeyUp"
GotFocus
=
"OnGotFocus"
PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown
=
"OnPreviewMouseLeftButtonDown"
FilteringBehavior

SelectedItems

SelectionMode

private void OnPreviewMouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
ValuesComboBox.Populate(ValuesComboBox.SearchText);
}
But now, if the dropdown was opened like this, you can move the window and the dropdown stays opened and does not move with the window. What´s the mistake?
Thanks!

Hi Sebastian,
Thank you for contacting us.
We managed to reproduce the scenario and it looks there is an issue in the current version of RadAutoCompleteBox when the Populate method is called from it's PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown or GotFocus events. In that scenario if the DropDown of the control is opened and the parent Window is directly moved that DropDown is not closed. As a workaround you could implement a logic that closes any opened Popup instances when the parent window is moved. To implement such workaround you could use the LocationChanged event of the Window and in that event simply set the IsOpen property of any Popup instance that is a child of the RadAutoCompleteBox. The next code snippet show the described workaround:
and in the event handler:
