Custom value supported igCombo with max length validation.
posted

Hi,

I having igCombo like 

$("#ContainerId").igCombo("option", "allowCustomValue", true);

Over that there is need to have validation like max length, which is not supported yet. I tried like shown below, but didn't help. 

$("#ContainerId").igCombo("option", "validatorOptions", {maxLength : 25});

Let me know how we can implement this.

Regards,

Manish Jain

    Hello Manish,

    You can use the lengthRange property to set validation for min/max number of selected items for the combo - please see this example https://www.igniteui.com/validator/overview (the Your interests combo).

    To perform validation over the combo value length, you need to implement a custom validation function:

        validatorOptions: {
         custom: {
          method: function(value, opts) {
           if(value.length > 25)
            return false;
           else
            return true;
          },
          errorMessage: "Value exceeds length !",
         },
        },
