[Solved] User Control in RadComboBox

[Jean-Marc]

Can I place a User Control inside a RadComboBox?
Something like this:
 

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadComboBoxCategoryLevels"
Width="400px"
AllowCustomText="false"
runat="server" >
<ItemTemplate >
<qsf:Catrunat="server" ID="MYCat" ></qsf:Cat>
</ItemTemplate>

<Items>
<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Text="" />
</Items>
</telerik:RadComboBox>

 

I tried, but it does not work, Thanks

Hello Jean,

Here is the code I tried that worked as expected.
aspx:

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadComboBox1" Filter="Contains" AllowCustomText="true" AppendDataBoundItems="true" runat="server" >
  <ItemTemplate>
     <uc1:uclistBox ID="uclistBox1" runat="server" />
     <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "Text") %>
  </ItemTemplate>
  <Items>
    <telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="10/10/2010" Text="10/10/2010" />
    <telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="10/3/2010" Text="10/3/2010" />
    <telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="10/10/2010" Text="10/10/2010" />
    <telerik:RadComboBoxItem Text="Date1" IsSeparator="true" />
  </Items>
</telerik:RadComboBox>

Before the template can use the combobox item properties to bind the elements in the template, the application needs to explicitly bind the items by calling the DataBind method of the RadComboBoxItem objects:
C#:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       for (int i = 0; i < RadComboBox1.Items.Count; i++)
       {
           RadComboBox1.Items[i].DataBind();
       }
   }

Thanks,
Princy.

Thanks, now everything works.
another question.
in my user control I have a RadTreeView, with properties and events to which I can not see just because the tree is located within the ComboBox.
there is a way to fix this?
thanks

Hi Jean-Marc,

I've prepared a sample page based on the scenario that you have explained.

I hope this would help you out.
