ADMIN EDIT
Here is a reproducible with the workaround highlighted in green:
@using System.Collections.ObjectModel
<h4>Option Selected: 6 @selectedSix</h4>
<br />
<TelerikDropDownList Data="@myDdlData"
TextField="MyTextField"
ValueField="MyValueField"
@bind-Value="@selectedSix" />
<h4>Option Selected: 7 @selectedSeven</h4>
<br />
<TelerikDropDownList Data="@myDdlData"
TextField="MyTextField"
ValueField="MyValueField"
@bind-Value="@selectedSeven">
</TelerikDropDownList>
<TelerikButton OnClick="@AddOption">Add Item</TelerikButton>
<ul>
@foreach (var item in myDdlData)
{
<li>@item.MyValueField</li>
}
</ul>
@code {
int selectedSix { get; set; } = 6;
int selectedSeven { get; set; } = 7;
ObservableCollection<MyDdlModel> myDdlData = new ObservableCollection<MyDdlModel>(Enumerable.Range(1, 5).Select(x => new MyDdlModel { MyTextField = "item " + x, MyValueField = x }));
protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
{
AddOption();
await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));
AddOption();
}
void AddOption()
{
myDdlData.Add(new MyDdlModel { MyTextField = "item " + (myDdlData.Count + 1), MyValueField = myDdlData.Count + 1 });
int origSelection = selectedSeven;
selectedSeven = 0;
StateHasChanged();
//add this if it does not work
//await Task.Delay(30);//wait a rendering frame
selectedSeven = origSelection;
//add this if it does not work
//StateHasChanged();
}
public class MyDdlModel
{
public int MyValueField { get; set; }
public string MyTextField { get; set; }
}
}
Note: This behavior also occurs if the initial data is received after the component is initialized. The workaround in this case will be similar - set the selected value after the data is received.

When used in Bootstrap Grid the DropDownList popup is misaligned on the first open. On a second click, it is aligned.
This behavior is also valid for Combobox and Autocomplete.
Reproduction code:
<div class="box">
<div class="row mt-3" style="align-items:center">
<div class="col-12 col-lg-4">
<span class="bold">ComboBox</span>
</div>
<div class="col">
<TelerikComboBox Data="@myComboData" TextField="ComboTextField" ValueField="ComboValueField"
@bind-Value="selectedCombo" ClearButton="true" Filterable="true">
</TelerikComboBox>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row mt-3" style="align-items:center">
<div class="col-12 col-lg-4">
<span class="bold">DropDownList</span>
</div>
<div class="col">
<TelerikDropDownList Data="@myDdlData" TextField="MyTextField" ValueField="MyValueField"
@bind-Value="@selectedDropDown">
</TelerikDropDownList>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row mt-3" style="align-items:center">
<div class="col-12 col-lg-4">
<span class="bold">Autocomplete</span>
</div>
<div class="col">
<TelerikAutoComplete Data="@Suggestions" @bind-Value="@AutoCompleteValue"
ClearButton="true" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
@code {
public int selectedDropDown { get; set; }
public int selectedCombo { get; set; }
public string AutoCompleteValue { get; set; }
//ComboBox
public class ComboModel
{
public int ComboValueField { get; set; }
public string ComboTextField { get; set; }
}
IEnumerable<ComboModel> myComboData = Enumerable.Range(1, 20).Select(x => new ComboModel { ComboTextField = "item " + x, ComboValueField = x });
//DropDownList
public class MyDdlModel
{
public int MyValueField { get; set; }
public string MyTextField { get; set; }
}
IEnumerable<MyDdlModel> myDdlData = Enumerable.Range(1, 20).Select(x => new MyDdlModel { MyTextField = "item " + x, MyValueField = x });
//Autocomplete
List<string> Suggestions { get; set; } = new List<string> {
"Manager", "Developer", "QA", "Technical Writer", "Support Engineer", "Sales Agent", "Architect", "Designer"
};
}

ADMIN EDIT
This behavior is observed in the DropDownList when filtering is enabled and in the ComboBox regardless of whether filtering is enabled or not.
The (filter) input gets focus, which shows the soft keyboard, which changes the viewport size, which causes the dropdown to hide. Unfortunately, there is no workaround at the moment (except perhaps disabling filtering for small viewports).
---
Steps to reproduce:
Expected: the group name should change to "Seafood".
Actual: the group name is still "Beverages".
The following knowledge base article describes how to select the default value in a drop down, but if there's no default value the selection is not cleared using this method.
When setting the bind value to null (or the default, or frankly anything that doesn't exist in the drop down) I'd like the drop down list selection to be cleared when there's no default value set on the DropDownList.
@page "/"
<br />
<TelerikButton OnClick="@ClearSelection">Clear selection</TelerikButton>
<TelerikDropDownList Data="@data" @bind-Value="selectedValue" />
@code {
List<string> data = new() { "selection" };
string selectedValue;
void ClearSelection()
{
// This does not cause the drop down to clear the selection and I think it should.
selectedValue = null;
}
}
When the Value you bind to the DropDownList is null (for example, because it is a model that is not filled in by the user yet, and you need to perform validation), the component throws a null reference exception.
This does not happen for a nullable integer (example here)
Reproducible:
@
using
System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations
@
using
Telerik.Blazor.Components.DropDownList
<EditForm Model=
"@PageData"
OnValidSubmit=
"@HandleValidSubmit"
>
<DataAnnotationsValidator />
<ValidationSummary />
@PageData.QuoteState
<TelerikDropDownList bind-Value=
"@PageData.QuoteState"
DefaultItem=
"@Hint"
Width=
"300px"
Data=
"@states"
TextField=
"stateName"
ValueField=
"stateID"
>
</TelerikDropDownList>
<ValidationMessage For=
"@(() => PageData.QuoteState)"
></ValidationMessage>
<button type=
"submit"
>Submit</button>
</EditForm>
@functions {
public
MyViewModel PageData {
get
;
set
; } =
new
MyViewModel();
public
statesModel Hint {
get
;
set
; } =
new
statesModel { stateID =
null
, stateName =
"Not Selected"
};
public
class
statesModel
{
public
string
stateID {
get
;
set
; }
public
string
stateName {
get
;
set
; }
}
public
class
MyViewModel
{
[Required(ErrorMessage =
"State is mandatory."
)]
//the value field in the dropdown model must be null in the default item
public
string
QuoteState {
get
;
set
; }
}
public
IEnumerable<statesModel> states =
new
List<statesModel>
{
new
statesModel { stateID =
"ACT"
, stateName =
"ACT"
},
new
statesModel { stateID =
"NSW"
, stateName =
"NSW"
},
new
statesModel { stateID =
"NT"
, stateName =
"NT"
},
new
statesModel { stateID =
"QLD"
, stateName =
"QLD"
},
new
statesModel { stateID =
"SA"
, stateName =
"SA"
},
new
statesModel { stateID =
"TAS"
, stateName =
"TAS"
},
new
statesModel { stateID =
"VIC"
, stateName =
"VIC"
},
new
statesModel { stateID =
"WA"
, stateName =
"WA"
}
};
void
HandleValidSubmit()
{
Console.WriteLine(
"OnValidSubmit"
);
}
}
Here is the scenario:
In this case, reducing or increasing the number of visible dropdown items does not adjust the open dropdown's position. As a result, it may either float too high, or overflow the screen.
Possible workarounds are:
Here is a test page:
<div style="height:80vh;background:linear-gradient(white,orange)">
<ol>
<li>Open a ComboBox</li>
<li>Type a character to filter and reduce the visible data items</li>
<li>Observe incorrect popup position that leaves a gap</li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li>Focus a closed ComboBox</li>
<li>Type a character to filter and display a reduced list of data items</li>
<li>Remove the filter string to increase the visible data item count</li>
<li>Observe incorrect popup position that overflows the screen</li>
</ol>
</div>
WORKS:
<TelerikComboBox Data="@ListItems"
@bind-Value="@SelectedValue"
TextField="@nameof(ListItem.Text)"
ValueField="@nameof(ListItem.Id)"
Filterable="true"
FilterOperator="@StringFilterOperator.Contains"
Width="300px" />
BROKEN:
<TelerikComboBox Data="@ListItems"
@bind-Value="@SelectedValue"
TextField="@nameof(ListItem.Text)"
ValueField="@nameof(ListItem.Id)"
Filterable="true"
FilterOperator="@StringFilterOperator.Contains"
Width="300px">
<ComboBoxSettings>
<ComboBoxPopupSettings Height="auto" MinHeight="50px" MaxHeight="60vh" />
</ComboBoxSettings>
</TelerikComboBox>
<div style="height:80vh;background:linear-gradient(orange, white)">
</div>
@code {
private List<ListItem> ListItems { get; set; } = new();
private int SelectedValue { get; set; }
protected override void OnInitialized()
{
ListItems = new List<ListItem>();
for (int i = 1; i <= 50; i++)
{
ListItems.Add(new ListItem()
{
Id = i,
Text = $"Item {i} {(char)Random.Shared.Next(65, 91)}{(char)Random.Shared.Next(65, 91)}{(char)Random.Shared.Next(65, 91)}{(char)Random.Shared.Next(65, 91)}"
});
}
base.OnInitialized();
}
public class ListItem
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Text { get; set; } = string.Empty;
}
}
Clicking on the <label> opens the dropdown, but clicking on its main element does not
Selected value: @selectedValue
<br />
<label>some label for the dropdown, open it and test whether clicking outside closes it
<TelerikDropDownList Data="@myDdlData" TextField="MyTextField" ValueField="MyValueField" @bind-Value="selectedValue">
</TelerikDropDownList>
</label>
@code {
//in a real case, the model is usually in a separate file
//the model type and value field type must be provided to the dropdpownlist
public class MyDdlModel
{
public int MyValueField { get; set; }
public string MyTextField { get; set; }
}
IEnumerable<MyDdlModel> myDdlData = Enumerable.Range(1, 20).Select(x => new MyDdlModel { MyTextField = "item " + x, MyValueField = x });
int selectedValue { get; set; } = 3; //usually the current value should come from the model data
}
When the Default text value is changed by some business logic, the component does not react to that change to update the Default text value in the view model.
DropDownList should re-render on change of the Default text parameter
