Hello,


I have being working with the kendoCombobox trying to implement in our project. 


I'm experencing one issue and I need a clarification. 


I created a kendoCombobox, with some options. and i'm adding to it 2 events. one is the CHANGE event and the other is the SELECT event.


I notice that in the CHANGE event there is a selectedIndex propertie of the current event. (this.selectedIndex) that represents a "-1" when the item doesn't appear in the datasource and the current index when yes. I can access to the value and use it to performe some validation, but i want to know if is there any reason that this is not in the documentation? I tried to look for a selectedIndex implementation in the documentation of the comobobox, and i couldn't find anything, i only realized of this value when i have debugged with the chrome.

Thekns for your time.
Polit, Guillermo

Hello Guillermo,

 
The "selectedIndex" is a property of the widget, which holds the index of the current selected item. It is not documented, because we suggest to use "select" method, which returns the selected index. You can find information about it here and here.
