Hello,

Is it possible to combine checkbox and autocomplete functionality in a RadComboBox?

We keep receiving the following error when we type in the comboxbox for the autocomplete functionality:
"A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete."

The following is the html for the related control:
<telerik:RadComboBox ID="cboProductCode" Filter="Contains" runat="server" Width="300px" MarkFirstMatch="true" EnableLoadOnDemand="true" CheckBoxes="true" DropDownAutoWidth="Disabled"></telerik:RadComboBox>

If it is possible, can you please provide suggestions on improving performance of the autocomplete functionality.

Thank You Very Much for your Assistance!

Hi Rengo,

 
Thank you for contacting Telerik support.

The issue is observed because Load On Demand functionality is not supported in combination with CheckBoxes. The reason is that RadComboBox's items loaded on demand are not accessible on the server which is needed for the CheckBox feature as it is explain din this help topic. Please excuse us for this limitation of our control. 

Hope this information will explain the issue. If you have further questions please don't hesitate to contact us again.

Regards,

Thank You Plamen for your assistance!

What does Telerik recommend for a solution?  We need to be able to have a database-driven list that incorporates checkboxes and allows for fast filtering of that list.

Thank You!

Hi Rengo,

 
Thank you for getting back to us.

Unfortunately a scenario with filtering and checkboxes is not supported at this moment because the filter string is token from the input where already may be some checked item in RadComboBox. This functionality is in our future to do list but at the moment we can not commit when exactly we will be able to add it.

If you have more questions please don't hesitate to contact us again.
