when using the xamComboeditor, the dropdown seem to try to place the dropdown to the left of the control itself, are there any way to change this behaviour ?
Hi,
I would expect the dropdown natively to be displayed directly below the textbox, with the same width as the control.
Could you provide me with your xaml or code defining the control and the product version of NetAdvantage for WPF you are using? Please include the specific service release so that I can try to reproduce the behavior.
It is possible to use the DropDownOpened event and set the width of the dropdown. You might check to see if that was being done in your application.
I look forward to working with you.
Hi Marianne,
I'm using ver. 20132.2036. I'm sure it's not an issue with my xaml, as the same thing happens when i'm running the WPF Sample browser

I hadn’t heard back from you. I was wondering if you had further questions.
Please let me know if I can help further.
These controls are two distinct controls with different base classes. I think there is confusion sometimes when people are posting about the controls. They don't explicitly state which they are using or it's an older post before the shared control became available.
The older XamComboEditor is an Infragistics.Windows.Editors and can only be used in WPF applications. Here is the documentation where you can see more details and the API Overview.

The Shared XamComboEditor is an Infragistics.Controls.Editor and can be used in WPF or Silverlight applications. Here is the documentation where you can see more details and the API Overview.

Let me know if you have further questions.
Thank you so much, that saved my day (and night), the WPF only version has the expected behaviour.
One (well actually two) question's though, why does the shared xamcomboeditor behave diffrently ?, and secondly, there has been a few posts regarding the "missing" SelectedValue property, are there any plans for that in upcomming service releases ?

Your screen image didn't attach successfully. Please zip up any files before you try to attach them.
I made a sample using 2013.2.2036 and included the shared XamComboEditor as well as the WPF Only XamComboEditor for comparison. I'm not sure which you are actually using. If you can provide the assemblies your comboeditor is using that will clear that up.
In any case I'm still not seeing any displacement of the dropdown for either control.
This sounds like an issue that may need to be raised with development but we need to be able to reproduce the behavior. So if you could run my sample and let me know if you see the behavior. If not, please modify my sample to make it parallel your application and demonstrate the behavior. Then zip up that version and return it to me.
