Scroll into View not working on text search

[Paul]

Hi,
    In the latest Silverlight 4 Q2 controls and even on your demo's of the combobox when you do a textsearch by pressing keys the item is highlighted in the dropdown list but does not scrollintoview you have to scroll your self to see thats it's highlighted and then select it.

So if the dropdown is showing and I type I want the item that is being highlighted brought into view.

Is this a bug that has reappeared?

Thanks

I assume this did not make it into Q3?

Hi,
I've the same Problem - using Q3 2010.
Is there an easy work-around? Or is there an update in the next few days?

Thank you.

This isn't 100% depending on how you use the combobox but based on the settings I use this works for me. If you put it in DropDownOpened and IsFilteringEnabled=False it should work every time the dropdown is opened. Or put it in both...

Good luck

private void RadComboBox_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
    var cmb = sender as RadComboBox;
    if (cmb != null) {
        if (cmb.SelectedItem == null) return;
        if (cmb.IsDropDownOpen)
        {
            RadComboBoxItem cmbItem = cmb.GetItemsAndContainers<RadComboBoxItem>().Where(item => item.Key == cmb.SelectedItem).Select(item => item.Value).FirstOrDefault();
            if (cmbItem != null)
            {
                cmb.GetScrollHost().ScrollIntoView(cmbItem);
            }
        }
    }
}

Hi Guys,

First  thank you for your involvement and the workaround Robert.

This fix didn't make it for the Q3 release, we know it is important and we will do our best to provide it for the next week's internal build. Hope this timeframe is acceptable for you.

Sorry to all, for the inconvenience caused.

Best wishes,
Boyan

Hi Boyan,

I've just downloaded latest internal build (2010.3.1129.1040) and issue is still there. When user type in edit area and drop-down list is presented selected item does not scrolled into view. If user simply press down arrow to see list of available choices currently selected item does not scrolled into view. Application I'm woking on has a lot of drop-downs and implement some strange work around for VERY BASIC AND STANDARD behavior does not look right for me. I hope you will be able to fix it.  Do you have more accurate estimate on when it can be done?  

Thanks,
Sergey

Hello Sergey Arutchev,

The fix was delayed a little bit. And didn't make it for the internal build. However it is now ready and it will be available in the next internal build or in the service pack which will be released very soon.

Sorry again for the caused inconvenience.

Hi Boyan,
Thank you for the info. Will wait for next build.

Thanks Tyree for the code.  It was exactly what I was looking for.  I found another solution that I want to share.  Using Virtualization fixes this issue.

Thanks again for sharing your solution.
