Hi there,
Is is possible to change the no of items displayed in a WebDropDown when the list is dropped down?
The WinForms UltraCombo has a MaxDropDownItems property, does the WebDropdown have somehting similar or can it be done?
Thanks
Deon
Hello Deon,
You can use load-on-demand feature of WebDropDown. If load-on-demand is enabled, the end-user should first be able to see a scrollbar in the dropdown container, and if they scroll to the end of the list more items are fetched and appended at the bottom of the list through asynchronous callbacks.
More information regarding load on demand can be found here

Please let me know if you have any further questions regarding this matter.
Hello Prabha,
Thank you for your information regarding the Load-on-demand feature, however maybe i was not clear in my question.
When a WebDropdown is dropped down, 8 list items are shown (irrespective of whether it is Load-on-Demand or not). I would like to increase this number, say to 16. In WinForms, this is possible with the UltraCombo by setting the MaxDropDownItems property from 8 to 16, and i was wondering if this was possible with the WebDropDown.
After some research I found out that there is no MaxDropDownItems property for Webdrodown.
