Combobox Items vanishing?

I have a problem with ComboBox selection. Items above the last selected seem to be vanishing from the list. I'll show my xaml and then explain:
<ComboBox x:Name="cmbFirmness" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="86,106,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="227" SelectionChanged="cmbFirmness_SelectionChanged" Grid.ColumnSpan="2">
<x:String>Soft</x:String>
<x:String>Medium</x:String>
<x:String>Hard</x:String>
</ComboBox>
So, for example, if I select 'Medium' from the list, then open the list again, I can only see 'Medium' and 'Hard'.
If I select 'Hard' then open the list again, I can only see 'Hard'. It's like the other options have vanished, or can't be scrolled to.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

How to validate Combobox items without expanding the combobox.

Hi,
I want to select the combobox item.
before selecting an item I want to validate whether the item is present in the combobox list.
while validating the item at for loop the combobox get expanded.
I don't want to expand it.
if (children[index].Name == entryToSelect)
isExists =
true;
break;
Please share your thoughts.....

Hi Rosy D,
I also try to test it in my side.
As far as I know we could collect all items with ComboBox.ObjectCollection class:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.combobox.objectcollection(v=vs.110).aspx
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17709363/check-if-user-input-are-in-the-combobox-items
But it seems that I'm failed to use this method in coded UI tests, so I’m afraid that it has this limitation for this issue.
We would use the
GetChildren method,
but as far as I know, we would expand this control.

How to set particular comboBox item selected once frame loaded?

I have a comboBox with all the items with data and labels
(set in the parameter of comboBox). However, I can't set the
particular comboBox item to display when the frame entered, like
this:
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.load = function(eventObject:Object) {
_root.cb.selectedIndex=3;
_root.cb.addEventListener("load", listenerObject);
What's wrong?

You cannot use the load event on a frame, because by the time
the code runs the component has already been loaded. But what you
can do is set the properties directly in that frame wihtout the
need of a listener. Simply write this,line instead of all the
previous code:
_root.cb.selectedIndex=3;

ComboBox Item How to remove repeating items that came from an entity of a .dbf database

Hi all,
Can somebody help me? What I want to happen is create a ComboBox Item from a .dbf database, the PMXMON contains each product's monthly data. Here's a screenshot of the output:
Is there a way to remove repeating items without changing the database contents?
I have this code:
Private Sub frmYearMonth_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim conn As New System.Data.Odbc.OdbcConnection("Driver={Microsoft Visual FoxPro Driver};SourceType=DBF;SourceDB=C:\;Exclusive=No")
conn.Open()
Dim strQuery As String = "SELECT * FROM CSHPMXP1"
Dim adapter As New System.Data.Odbc.OdbcDataAdapter(strQuery, conn)
Dim ds As New System.Data.DataSet()
adapter.Fill(ds, "PMXMON")
With ComboBox1
.DataSource = ds.Tables("PMXMON")
.DisplayMember = "PMXMON"
.ValueMember = "PMXMON"
.SelectedIndex = 0
.Text = "--YYYYmm--"
End With
End Sub
Thanks :)
Geee

You can use Distinct keyword to return unique records from your DB.
On the side I'm not seeing any informative value in your Comobox, if you trying to show product monthly data.
SELECT Distinct PMXMON
FROM CSHPMXP1

WPF Finding Selected ComboBox Item Within DataGrid

Hi all... I'm having an issue trying to access the selected item value in a ComboBox within a DataGridTemplateColumn.
Through another question/answer I have got the ComboBox displaying the names as it should but the next step I'm having issues with is to be able to loop through each row in the DataGrid and determine the selected value of the ComboBox in that row as
well as some other items and run some other code based on those values.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

In a way, wpf is similar to web.
More so than windows forms anyhow.
XAML is mark up and flows like html.
You have padding and margin which are rather familiar concepts.
Whereas windows forms is absolute positioning and... well totally different from markup.
You might find this sample interesting as a sort of mvvm taster.
https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/WPF-Dialler-simulator-d782db17
and event handling equivalents
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/30564.wpf-uneventful-mvvm.aspx
Note
With a combo you bind the selecteditem to a propfull and then you can put a method call in the setter. That will then be invoked when the user changes selection.
Good luck and welcome to wpf development.
It's a great technology.
Hope that helps.

SetStyle of specific combobox item

Im trying to create a combobox that makes the text of a
specific item a specific color and bold.
I know i could do this with ALL the items in the list through
something like:
view_comboBox.setStyle("color", 0xFFFFFF);
I want to only do it for a specific item in my list. How
would i go about doing this? There has to be some way to do this.
I know since the combobox uses the list class too if i recall
correctly you could do this to change the background color of a
specific item and add a icon to it next to it by doing the
following:
setPropertiesAt(2, {backgroundColor:0xFF0000, icon: "file"});
My only issue is that it only supports those two properties
and not changing the text color. Is there some workaround to make
it so i can change the text color of a specific item either by
using the list class which is inherited by my combobox or through
the combobox class?

Mail - new items vanish

I am having an issue with Mail, OSX 10.4.10. I added a new account yesterday for a total of four, all POP accounts. When new mail shows up in my inbox and I try to open one, they all vanish. They no longer appear in the inbox, deleted items or junk. Just gone. I have tested outside of mail and they still exist on the POP server however. Anyone able to help with this?
Mac Pro Quad Xeon Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Are all the accounts affected by this problem, or only the newly added one?
Do you have any custom rules? Try disabling all of them.
Report the names of the files and folders present at the first level of the ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/ account folder in the Finder.
In order to post the exact file names and avoid typing mistakes, proceed as follows. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/POP-username@mailserver/. With that folder open, if you’re looking at it in View > as List mode, first collapse any expanded folders so that the Finder only shows the files and folders at the first level. Now, do Edit > Select All (⌘A), then Edit > Copy (⌘C), and paste it in your reply to this post.
Does INBOX.mbox’s Messages folder contain as many *.emlx files as messages show up in Mail. Actually, does it contain any *.emlx files at all?
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.

You have to use ViewStack control, as
<ComboBox />
<ViewStack selectedIndex={cmbBox.selectedIndex} >
     <Panel 1 />
     <Panel 2 />
     <Panel 3 />
</ViewStack>
Hope this will help you.
Thanks.

Display Image of ComboBox Item Selection

I want to display an image when the user selects an item from the ComboBox. Which Property should I use?

You don't say where the image comes from, how you want to display it, or how the image is related to the selection in the ComboBox. However, you can handle the ComboBox SelectedIndexChanged event and out you code to display the image in that handler.
Sub ComboBox1SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ComboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
Dim cmb As ComboBox = CType(sender, ComboBox)
Dim selectedItem As Object = cmb.SelectedItem
'Do something to display an image somewhere
End Sub

How to reach Combobox Items via Key pressed (Java5)

Hallo all,
I have a question. I have a JCombobox field and assume that it has its items like (Apple, Banana, Pear). How can I manage to jump into Pear item by pressing P in that combobox?

I am sorry I was wrong. I had to tell that my Combobox value is in my Table and the CellListener doesn't allow to do that. If I am gonna have another Swing problem I am going to send my message to that forum. I don't want to duplicate this question right now. Here is my code.
    public void load() {
        serviceType = data.getMetadata(position).getMetadataValuesSorted().toArray(new MetadataValue[0]);
        String[] metadataValues = new String[serviceType.length];

            MetadataValue values = serviceType;
metadataValues[i] = values.getValue();
final TableColumn col2 = table.getColumnModel().getColumn(1);
col2.setCellEditor(new MetadataValueComboBoxEditor(serviceType));
col2.setCellRenderer(new MetadataValueComboBoxRenderer(serviceType));

MetadataValueComboBoxEditor and MetadataValueComboBoxRenderer inner classes doesn't allow me to select the item via key pressed.

ComboBox "Item" versus "Export Value"

I have a ComboBox which has a list of Items that each have an Export Value. I can reference the Export Value using this.getField('ComboBox').value; How can I reference the Item value in another field?

See that documentation and example code for the following:
currentValueIndices field property: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.694.html
getItemAt field method: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.745.html

Load combobox items from file

Hi,
I dont know do I use correct components here, but I have tried to load some dropdown selector's items from file. I have file, which items changed all the time, so I have to load those to user's dropdown selectro every time when program starts. Eny ideas?
A.A
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Use a property node Strings
Strings [] Property
Short Name: Strings[]
Requires: Base Package
Class: ComboBox Properties
Array of the strings from which you can select in the combo box control. Use the Strings And Values [] property to specify custom values for each string.
If you use this property with a combo box control that has custom values, the number of values for the combo box control determines the number of strings you can set using this property. For example, if the combo box control has the values Free, Discount, and Full, you can set only three strings using this property.
If the combo box control has more values than the number of strings you wire to this property, LabVIEW creates strings for any values that do not have corresponding strings. For example, if the combo box control has the values Free, Discount, and Full and you wire the strings Voucher and Coupon to this property, LabVIEW sets the last string to <Full>.
This property is similar to the Edit Items item on the shortcut menu of a combo box control and to the Labels option on the Edit Items page of the Combo Box Properties dialog box.

Filter combobox items on WPF form

I currently have a combobox that is bound to a dataset. I would like to filter the items in the combobox based on a column in the same dataset being either 'T' or 'F'. I have even tried to load the combobox with Select... From... While... but can't
seem to get that working either.
This is probably extremely simple but all the research that I have done will not give me this simple answer.
Thanks for the help, I am feeling pretty stupid right now.

ADO has the dataview rowfilter.
WHen you bind a datatable to a wpf itemscontrol using defaultview you are using a dataview.
And you can set that:
ds.Tables[0].DefaultView.RowFilter = "";
Although, obviously, you will want an actual filter expression rather than an empty string.
More about this:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.dataview.rowfilter%28v=vs.110%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/marcelolr/archive/2007/03/05/using-dataview-rowfilter.aspxhttp://www.akadia.com/services/dotnet_filter_sort.html
I wasn't very careful sorting through those links, they look OK at first glance but I know how this works.
My google search criteria was "rowfilter msdn" you might want to try variants if they don't prove too useful.
Hope that helps.
