RadComboBox for .NET MAUI has search feature, however it does not filters the items matching the text, instead it only scrolls to the matching item. We can manually filter the items in the item source but it would be nice to have such filtering built in.
Also we need to highlight the first item that matches the search string. Currently it doesn't seem to be possible. One way could be to select the first item manually which may change the background of the item and give a feel of highlight but that causes problem with selected item because we also need to subscribe to selected item change and do some other processing based on that. If we select item as filter happens then it would trigger selection change multiple times needlessly.
Also it seems that currently RadComboBox dropdown does not have support for keyboard navigation. We need to be able to navigate between items with keyboard up/down arrows so that user can navigate to different items and then press enter to select the highlighted item. This feature might not make sense on mobile but it is needed for desktop platforms.
Let me know if there is already a way to achieve the above behavior.

This feature probably does not make sense on mobile platforms, but it would be great on desktop platforms.In RadComboBox, when entering text to filter the items in dropdown, it would be nice to have the first item selected by default that matches the filter and also have the ability to select different item by keyboard up/down arrows.

Telerik RadComboBox for MAUI looses focus and triggers unfocus event after selecting an item from the dropdown. This behavior works fine on first time page loading. But if we navigate to some other page and then navigate back to the first page then, upon selecting any item from combobox it closes the dropdown but does not loose the focus and hence does not trigger unfocus event.
We are using the unfocus event with event to command behaviour and ultimately triggering a command in viewmodel. This works fine the first time but after navigation it does not work.
It appears that by the amount of problems that I have encountered so far that Telerik UI for .NET MAUI has not been tested at all on IOS.
Your own ControlSamples do not run for IOS.
Anyway..
Next problem.
IOS Specific only.
<telerik:RadComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Items}"
Placeholder="Select Status"
IsDropDownClosedOnSelection="True"/>
note that to use the Telerik Custom Controls it is necessary to either add an x:name to each control, or dummy instantiate each one.
This can be done in MauiProgram.cs.
Add line
_ = new RadComboBox();
A runtime error occurs when using telerik:RadComboBox and the application will abort.

Hi Team,
Currently, the popup for the RadComboBox doesn't allow you to make it wider than the ComboBox's width (even if you set ItemTemplate to be wider).
The only available properties for styling the "dropdown/popup' are listed here https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/maui/controls/combobox/styling, which happens to include DropDownHeight, but not Width.
This feature request asks you to allow us to set this DropDownWidth via Style, Property, ControlTemplate, or whatever best fit the control architecture.
Thank you,
Matthew
Provide an option to modify the ComboBox so there is no space between the ComboBox and the dropdown.
The width of RadEntry, RadMaskedEntry, and RadComboBox are the same on windows, android and ios. On mac there is difference when the width of the defined Column is set to * in grid:

Windows:
Hi Team,
We have a need for being able to dynamically choose a template for the three available DataTemplate:
Thank you,

We would like to be able to override the behavior of the Clear button in the editable combo box.
When the user has started typing into an editable combo box, and they click the Clear button before they've selected another item, we want to revert their text to what was in there before they started typing and keep the previously selected item selected, rather than clearing the text and selected item.
If you can add that functionality, even better, but it should be enough to just expose the Clear button's Click event (with a Cancel param or another way to ensure the text isn't cleared), so we can override the current functionality.
I would like to see a new feature in the RadComboBox for "Select All" functionality.
Here is the general functional paradigm I'm hoping to see.
1. All Selection
2. Partial Deselection
