When you enable the popup sizing functionality, the last user defined size by the sizing grip should be kept.

When you set the DropDownHeight property to a big number that exceeds the screen's height, the applied values is SystemInformation.WorkingArea.Height - 100 . However, it should be only SystemInformation.WorkingArea.Height. These 100 pixels shouldn't be lost.

NOTE: the same behavior is observed with DropDownWidth as well.

Workaround:

Public Class CustomMultiColumn

    Protected Overrides Function CreateMultiColumnComboBoxElement() As RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement
        Return New CustomRadMultiColumnComboBoxElement()
    End Function

    Public Overrides Property ThemeClassName As String
        Get
            Return GetType(RadMultiColumnComboBox).FullName
        End Get
        Set(value As String)
            MyBase.ThemeClassName = value
        End Set
    End Property
End Class

    Protected Overrides Function GetPopupSize(popup As RadPopupControlBase, measure As Boolean) As Drawing.Size
        Dim s As Size = MyBase.GetPopupSize(popup, measure)
        Return New Size(s.Width, Math.Min(SystemInformation.WorkingArea.Height, Me.DropDownHeight))
    End Function

    Protected Overrides ReadOnly Property ThemeEffectiveType As Type
        Get
            Return GetType(RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement)
        End Get
    End Property
End Class

To reproduce:

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
    dt.Columns.Add("Column " + i);
}
for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
{
    dt.Rows.Add(i);
}

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DataSource = dt;
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DisplayMember = "Column 0";
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DropDownSizingMode = SizingMode.UpDown;
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.AutoSizeDropDownToBestFit = true;
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.LoadElementTree();
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.MultiColumnComboBoxElement.DropDownAnimationEnabled = false;
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.MultiColumnComboBoxElement.ShowPopup();


The columns are autosized but the popup is not sized correctly.

To reproduce:
radMultiColumnComboBox.AutoFilter = True

Dim filter As New Telerik.WinControls.Data.FilterDescriptor()
filter.PropertyName = radMultiColumnComboBox.DisplayMember
filter.Operator = Telerik.WinControls.Data.FilterOperator.StartsWith

radMultiColumnComboBox.EditorControl.MasterTemplate.FilterDescriptors.Add(filter)
radMultiColumnComboBox.MultiColumnComboBoxElement.AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend
radMultiColumnComboBox.MultiColumnComboBoxElement.LimitToList = True

- Select an item, copy the text and then try to paste it.

To reproduce:

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt.Columns.Add("Id", typeof(int));
dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
for (int i = 0; i < 1; i++)
{
    dt.Rows.Add(i, "Item" + i);
}
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DataSource = dt;
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DisplayMember = "Name";
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.ValueMember = "Id";

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.AutoFilter = true;
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.SelectedIndex = -1;

NOTE: If you add more than 1 items, the text won't be changed.

Workaround:

Public Class CustomRadMultiColumnComboBox

    Protected Overrides Function CreateMultiColumnComboBoxElement() As RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement
        Return New CustomRadMultiColumnComboBoxElement()
    End Function

        End Get
        Set(value As String)
            MyBase.ThemeClassName = value

        Get
            Return GetType(RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement)
        End Get
    End Property
End Class

To reproduce:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    DataTable dt = new DataTable();
    dt.Columns.Add("Id", typeof(int));
    dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
    for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
    {
        dt.Rows.Add(i, "Item" + i);
    }
    this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DataSource = dt;
    this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DisplayMember = "Name";
    this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.ValueMember = "Id";
    this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.SelectedValueChanged += radMultiColumnComboBox1_SelectedValueChanged; 
}

private void radMultiColumnComboBox1_SelectedValueChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{ 
    if (this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.SelectedIndex > -1)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Test");
    }
}

NOTE: If you use a RadMessageBox, after showing the message the first time, the popup can't be closed because InvalidOperationException is thrown.

Workaround: show the message box in the RadMultiColumnComboBox.DropDownClosed event.

To reproduce:
- Open the attached project.
- Type a text so there are no results in the drop down.
- Press Enter.
- Click the arrow button.

Workaround: 
private void RadMultiColumnComboBox1_DropDownOpened1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (radMultiColumnComboBox1.Text == "")
    {
        radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.FilterDescriptors.Clear();
        CompositeFilterDescriptor compositeFilter = new CompositeFilterDescriptor();
        compositeFilter.FilterDescriptors.Add(new FilterDescriptor("Drug", FilterOperator.StartsWith, ""));
        compositeFilter.FilterDescriptors.Add(new FilterDescriptor("Name", FilterOperator.StartsWith, ""));
        compositeFilter.LogicalOperator = FilterLogicalOperator.Or;
        radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.FilterDescriptors.Add(compositeFilter);
    }
}

To reproduce:
- Start the attached project and type a value so one item remains in the drop down.
- Press Enter - event is not fired.

Workaround:
Use the DropDownClosed event and check if the value is changed. 

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select the radMultiColumnsComboBox1 at Design time
2. Press F4 for showing Properties
3. Open Columns editor (GridViewDataColumn Collection Editor)
4. Try to add a column
Error Message: Cannot create an instance of the abstract class or interface 'Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewDataColumn' because it is an abstract class.

        else
        {
            RadMessageBox.Show(res.Exception.Message);
        }
    }, ui);
}

Workaround: use custom filtering instead of CompositeFilterDescriptor:

FilterDescriptor filter = new FilterDescriptor();
filter.PropertyName = this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DisplayMember;
filter.Operator = FilterOperator.Contains;
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.MasterTemplate.FilterDescriptors.Add(filter);
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.EnableCustomFiltering = true;
this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.CustomFiltering += EditorControl_CustomFiltering;

 private void EditorControl_CustomFiltering(object sender, GridViewCustomFilteringEventArgs e)
 {
     string searchText = this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.MultiColumnComboBoxElement.EditorElement.Text;
     if (searchText != string.Empty)
     {
         Instrument instrument = e.Row.DataBoundItem as Instrument;

         e.Handled = true;
         e.Visible = instrument.Isin.Contains(searchText) || instrument.Description.Contains(searchText) || instrument.AlphaCode.Contains(searchText) ||
                     instrument.MicMarketplaceCode.Contains(searchText) || instrument.WorpMarketPlaceDescription.Contains(searchText) ||
                     instrument.InstrumentType.Contains(searchText) || instrument.DerivateIsin.Contains(searchText);
     }
 }

To reproduce:
- Add 200k rows and the call the BestFitColumns method like this (only the visual rows should be measured in this case):
this.radMultiColumnComboBox.BestFitColumns(true, false);

Workaround:
Set the AutoSizeDropDownColumnMode before calling the method:
this.radMultiColumnComboBox.MultiColumnComboBoxElement.AutoSizeDropDownColumnMode = BestFitColumnMode.DisplayedCells;
this.radMultiColumnComboBox.BestFitColumns(true, false);

To reproduce:
- Set the AutoFileter property to true.
- Add filter descriptor;
- Start the application and type something in the control - you just need to filter the values so more than one entry is available in the drop down.
- Press Tab or click on other control.
- You will notice that the selected value is set, but the text is not synchronized.

Workaround:
void radMultiColumnComboBox1_Validated(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (radMultiColumnComboBox1.SelectedValue != null)
    {
        string text = radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.CurrentRow.Cells[radMultiColumnComboBox1.DisplayMember].Value.ToString();
        if (text != radMultiColumnComboBox1.Text)
        {
            radMultiColumnComboBox1.Text = text;
        }
    }
}

To reproduce:
- The attached video shows how you can reproduce the issue

Note - you should type fast in the drop down and the size is invalid only the firs time.

Workaround:
RadMultiColumnComboBox1.MultiColumnComboBoxElement.DropDownAnimationEnabled = False

To reproduce:
- Ty some text so the items in the drop down are filtered.
- Directly press enter (this should select the first item in the drop down)
- The selected value is updated however the text is not.

Workaround:
Private Sub cbo_SelectedValueChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles RadMultiColumnComboBox1.SelectedValueChanged, RadMultiColumnComboBox2.SelectedValueChanged, RadMultiColumnComboBox3.SelectedValueChanged
    Dim cbo As RadMultiColumnComboBox = sender

    If bLoading = False AndAlso cbo.Text <> CType(cbo.SelectedItem, Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewDataRowInfo).Cells(cbo.DisplayMember).Value Then
        cbo.Text = CType(cbo.SelectedItem, Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewDataRowInfo).Cells(cbo.DisplayMember).Value
    End If
End Sub

To reproduce:
- Bind the control and set the auto filter functionality.
- Type a value and press the tab key or click ouside of the control.
- Subscribe to the DropDownClosed event and observe that the SelectedValue and the text are different.

Workaround:
void radMultiColumnComboBox1_DropDownClosed(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadPopupClosedEventArgs args)
{
    this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.Text = this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.SelectedValue.ToString();
}

Workaround: 
1. Position the RadMultiColumnComboBox control and instead of setting the Dock property to Fill, anchor the it on all four sides.
Alternatively:
2. Set the Dock property to Fill, but also set a MinimumSize of the column defining a height

To reproduce:
- Add columns to  the control manually.
- Bind the control. Make sure that the FieldNames are different from the column names.
- Start the application and select a value. Retrieve he value upon button click.

Workaround:
Use equal names.

To reproduce:
- Bind the control to a binding list.
- Add and then remove items at runtime.


Workaround:
radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.BeginUpdate();

list.RemoveAt(0);

radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.EndUpdate();
