UltraTextEditor does not refresh drop-down element size

260

Mike Krolnik posted over 16 years ago

I am creating a search box, which dynamically displays the search results as you type.
For these purposes I am using an UltraTextEditor control with an UltraGrid as the drop-down control (DropDownEditorButton).

Because there are different number of results on each keystroke, I would like to resize the UltraGrid to the proper size.

Unfortunatelly the UltraTextEditor/DropDownEditorButton seems only to refresh the size on dropdown event.
Which only happens for the first time, because I keep the results visible...

How can I dynamically resize the UltraTextEditor/DropDownEditorButton's control to refresh, on each TextChange event?

Regards,
Mike

Hi Mike,
At this time, there is no way to dyncamically size the DropDown once it is open. You should submit this to Infragistics as a feature request:

Can we use an API to close the DropDown and use another API to open it again immediately? When it is re-opened, the size should be changed.

Yes, I beleive you can. There are DropDown and CloseUp methods on the DropDownEditorButton. So you can get the button from the ButtonsRight (or ButtonsLeft) collection and then cast it to a DropDownEditorButton and call CloseUp and DropDown.

My code is
            DropDownEditorButton.CloseUp();
            DropDownEditorButton.DropDown();

I get this error when running.

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

I just tested this out and it worked fine for me:
            DropDownEditorButton button = this.ultraTextEditor1.ButtonsRight[0] as DropDownEditorButton;
            button.CloseUp();
            button.DropDown();
