RadComboBox default item

[Brian]

Hello all, my first post here.

I am using the Telerik controls in my Silverlight application.  I have a combo box with items that have been bound to the control and that appears to be working fine.  When the UI is rendered I see a small square box on that control and when I click on that combo box the top value shown is blank with a checkbox next to it.  I would like the combo box to not have any small box on the control itself and I would like to only show checkboxes, when interacting with the control, that have values.

I have posted my code below and attached a couple of photos to show the issue.

<telerik:RadComboBox.ItemTemplate>
  <DataTemplate>
    <Checkbox IsChecked="{Binding}" Content="{Binding}" />
  </DataTemplate>
</telerik:RadComboBox.ItemTemplate>

Hi Brian,

What I can suggest you would be to also implement a SelectionBoxTemplate which will allow to display the selected item differently.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the response Kalin.  The SelectionBoxTemplate is a useful example but not at all really what I am looking for.

Hello Brian,

Could you please share some more details on the exact scenario? The SelectionBoxTemplate will allow you to hide the CheckBox from the SelectedItem. Or you need to sometimes show it (when the selected item has some particular value) and hide it sometimes?

I'm looking forward to your reply.
