I am creating a custom multi-select & multi-column combo editor and I want to use a usercontrol instead of the default popup control of ultracomboeditor.
I am using Infragistics v11.2 CLR4.
No, there's no way to simply replace the popup control for every combo in the app.
The only way to do this is the approach I linked above. Use an EditorButton in the ButtonsRight or ButtonsLeft collection. And then you have to handle the keyboard and mouse interaction for your popup control.
Yes I have seen this post.
But as I said earlier I am looking for a way to use the ultracomboeditors and just override the popup.
I do not want to replace all the ultracomboeditors that are used across many applications with ultraTextEditors and then use the custom popup as this would mean that all existing code / logic around those ultracomboeditors also would have to be modified which would require huge amount of testing.
There is a quick example of this technique here.
Hi Milko,
Could you please provide a small example? Do I have to use a popup container? I have a user control which needs to be displayed and since I am replacing existing UltraComboEditors in my application with this new User Control, it would be more helpful if I don't have to change the existing implementations of the UltraComboEditors.
Hi,
Can you give a short example on how the custom control is hooked into the dropdown?
Thanks,
Michael
