When filtering is applied to RadMultiColumnComboBox editor in CellEditorInitialized event of RadGridView, the selected item is second one, if the new row is edited.

Workaround: change the event handler by adding the following lines of code in the end of the RadGridView1_CellEditorInitialized:

Dim value As Object = e.Row.Cells(e.ColumnIndex).Value
 
If value Is Nothing Then
    editor.EditorControl.CurrentRow = Nothing
Else
    editor.Value = e.Row.Cells(e.ColumnIndex).Value
End If

1. Create a new project and add RadMultiColumnComboBox
2. Bind it and setup filtering
3. Attach to SelectedValueChanged and SelectedIndexChanged events
4. Run the project
5. Apply some filtering and you will see that these events will not fire, regardless that the current row has changed.

Work around it by using the EditorControl.CurrentRowChanged event instead of SelectedValueChanged/SelectedIndexChanged events.

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.

this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.EditorControl.CurrentRowChanging += new CurrentRowChangingEventHandler(EditorControl_CurrentRowChanging);

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

To reproduce:
Type "Th" into the multi-column combo box in the attached project.  Then press and hold the Backspace key until "Th" is deleted.  Then release Backspace key.  There remain only the filtered options in the dropdown.
If I press and release the backspace key 1x for each typed letter, then the dropdown repopulates as expected.

Workaround: 
 private void radMultiColumnComboBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)

Hello,

I'm facing a problem with the MulticolumnCombobox that results in an SelectedValueChanged-Event when the list is dropped down the first time after data source was set. Please use the attached project for reproducing the problem using the following steps:

  1. Start Application on Windows 10 Chinese (Note: The described behaviour will not occur for other cultures (i.e. German will not fire the event at that time))
  2. Click the Button having the Text "RadButton1", which will set the DataSource and fire the event "SelectedValueChanged" (MessageBox will pop up) which is okay at this point.
  3. Now perform the drop down for the Combobox. Using Windows 10 Chinese will fire "SelectedValueChanged" and Windows 10 German will not fire "SelectedValueChanged".

==> As the MulticolumnCombobox performs different based on the culture, this seems to be a bug.

 

If you need further information, please do not hestitate to ask.

Populate RadMultiColumnComboBox with data and enable the auto filter functionality. Apply a CompositeFilterDescriptor with two text columns. Try to filter entering several letters and press Tab. You will notice that the SelectedIndexChanged event is not fired in this case. However, if only one FilterDescriptor is added, not a CompositeFilterDescriptor, the selection will be properly updated. 

Please refer to the attached sample project and gif file which illustrates the behavior.

Use the following code and try to scroll item by item with the mouse wheel:

        public RadForm1()
        {
            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.DisplayMember = "Name";
            this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.ValueMember = "Id";
            this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.DataSource = dt;
            this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.ScrollOnMouseWheel = true;
            this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.SelectedValueChanged+=radMultiColumnComboBox1_SelectedValueChanged;
        }

        private void radMultiColumnComboBox1_SelectedValueChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Value: "+this.radMultiColumnComboBox1.SelectedValue);
        }

Expected behavior: one item is scrolled at a time

Actual behavior: two items are scrolled at a time

Note: RadDropDownList behaves as expected.

In this particular case, the RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement is used as a custom editor inside RadPropertyGrid control. When the editor is shown it needs to be opened 3 times to correctly calculate its width. In addition, the font is scaled twice:

Steps to reproduce:
1) Add RadGridView control
2) Add GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn column:

            GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn multiCoomboBoxColumn = new GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn();
            multiCoomboBoxColumn.DataSource = customTable;
        

Workaround:
do not set the DropDownHeight 
property. Instead, you could set the AutoSizeDropDownToBestFit property to true and the MaxDropDownItems property, which gets or sets the maximum number of items to be shown in the drop-down portion. Here is a sample code snippet:
RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement element = e.ActiveEditor as RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement;
element.AutoSizeDropDownToBestFit = true;
element.MaxDropDownItems = 20;
