StaysOpenOnEdit="True" not working

[Xavier]

The follow code doesn't work:

<telerik:RadComboBox Name="testcc" ItemsSource="{Binding TestTypes}" SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedTestType}" IsEditable="True" StaysOpenOnEdit="True" IsFilteringEnabled="True" TextSearchMode="Contains" DisplayMemberPath="FullName"/>

I tried setting OpenDropDownOnFocus="True", and it works only for the first time. When the ComboBox is still on focus but the dropdown is close, I tried typing in the textbox the dropdown will not open.

Hi Xavier,

The StaysOpenOnEdit property is not used and will be marked as obsolete in the next release.

As to the OpenDropDownOnFocus property -  the dropdown is opened, when the combobox receives the focus ( it didn't contain the focus before that ), that's why it's expected not to work in the described case.

All the best,

Hi,
But is solution this??

Hi Rahul,

Its default behavior is to stay open while entering text in the input. If the dropdown is closed and the combobox is in focus, you should manually open it with the dropdown button.
