Hi,
I am programmatically trying to make a xamComboEditor go into focus+editable mode , so that user sees the blinking cursor.Though the combobox gets focus as i can see the dotted line around the combobox, I do not see it as editable. This is not the behaviour for ordinary WPF Combobox. Note that my combobox is
<ig:XamComboEditor ItemsSource="{Binding Books}" Height="23" IsEditable="True" DisplayMemberPath="Name" OpenDropDownOnTyping="False" AutoComplete="True" IsDropDownOpen="False" AllowMultipleSelection="True" PreviewKeyDown="BooksCombo_PreviewKeyDown" CheckBoxVisibility="Visible" HorizontalAlignment="Right" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="167" Name="BooksCombo" CustomValueEnteredAction="Allow" />
Thanks

Hello Anindya Chakrabarti,
In the xamComboEditor uses the WPF ComboBox in the EditTemplate that can be found in the default styles folder. E.g.: C:\Program Files (x86)\Infragistics\NetAdvantage 2011.2\WPF\DefaultStyles\Editors\EditorsGeneric.xaml.
To enter edit mode there is an IsInEditMode property that can be set to true.
Let me know if I can provide any further assistance.
Hi Duane,
The property IsInEditMode is not available to the kind of XamComboEditor I am using (namespace xmlns:ig="http://schemas.infragistics.com/xaml")
The one you are talking about is in namespace xmlns:igEditors="http://infragistics.com/Editors". The problem is I need to have AllowMultipleSelection="True" in my combo. Since you provide multi selection with checkbox I am going for infragistics combo, ootherwise I could have used a WPF one, which goes in edit mode on focus.This maybe a bug in your combo implementation. Let me know if you have a workaround.
Thanks & regards
The IsInEditMode Property seem to have just appeared in 12.2 and wasn't available in the previous versions.
