I'm trying to clear out the text entered in a RadDropdownlist while the popup is open by doing a "shift + home" to select all text but instead it causes the first dropdown item to get selected from the popup window. Pressing the "end" key will select the last item from the list. I've tried everything I could think of to suppress this but nothing seems to work. What can I do?

I hope this will be useful. Let me know if you have additional questions.

public class MyDropDownList : RadDropDownList{ protected override RadDropDownListElement CreateDropDownListElement() { return new MyDropDownListElement(); }}public class MyDropDownListElement : RadDropDownListElement{ protected override RadPopupControlBase CreatePopupForm() { MyPopupForm form = new MyPopupForm(this); this.Popup = form; this.WirePopupFormEvents(this.Popup); return form; } protected override Type ThemeEffectiveType { get { return typeof(RadDropDownListElement); } }}public class MyPopupForm : DropDownPopupForm{ public MyPopupForm(RadDropDownListElement ownerDropDownListElement) : base(ownerDropDownListElement) { } public override bool OnKeyDown(Keys keyData) { if ((keyData == Keys.Home || keyData == Keys.End)) { return false; } return base.OnKeyDown(keyData); }}I hope this will be useful. Let me know if you have additional questions.
