Wpf - ComboBox SelectedIndex Lost On Content Change?

Feb 21, 2012

I have a ComboBox which content might change. The issue is when the content is changed, 1) i lose the previous selectedIndex, and 2) SelectedIndex is set to -1. I would like an MVVM solution, not some solution involving code-behind. I can have the SelectedIndex set to 0 on content change, but -1 is not a valid value for my model.

What i did as a 'trick' was to have the setter of the property bound to SelectedIndex to set the value to 0 when the value is set to -1. So now i don't have incorrect value in my model. But the ComboBox does not display the "0"th item, rather an empty box.

What could i do to have my ComboBox display the first item (index 0) when its content changes ?

[Code]...

Weeks is a Notifying property that is a list of strings. It is changed when i change the Year property.WeekNumber is a notifying property of type integer. Now when it is set to -1, i set the corresponding private member to 0 to avoid wrong value in my model.

Cascading Combobox - When Change Cb1 - Change Cb2 And Click Save Button - Cb2 Seems To Be 'lost

Feb 15, 2012

I have two combobox in a form: Cb1 and Cb2

When I load the form, Cb1 and Cb2 are connected to a bindingsource.

When I change Cb1, the code (below) changes Cb2 to show only the items according to Cb1

This is working fine.

The problem is when I change Cb1 , change Cb2 and click the save button..... Cb2 seems to be 'lost'...

I'm using VS2008.

ComboBox.SelectedIndex = -1 Not Working?

Nov 23, 2010

My understanding is that if you set a ComboBoxes .SelectedIndex to -1, it should unselect any items in the ComboBox and show nothing in the ComboBox text. This is not happening. How can I get that to happen?I have 10 items in the Combobox. Let's say the index is set to number 5 and the text says "MasterCard". Now through code I want to set it to -1 and the text should show nothing. How can I do this?

Combobox Invalid Argument SelectedIndex

Apr 19, 2012

I create several controls dynamically with the function createControl which returns a control

....
ElseIf objName = "COMBO" Then
Dim cbo As New ComboBox

[Code].....

I know that my combobox has 3 items (in that case that the value was 2) I found that I cannot call selectedIndex before create the combobox, but I am kind of confuse here. I tried also to add it to the panel and to the tablelayoutpanel and then set the selectedIndex but I get the same error.

Forms :: Tab Key Does Not Set Combobox.selectedindex With Autocomplete

Aug 28, 2009

I am having a problem to get the results of a combobox when the user uses the tab key to exit the combobox. The combobox uses a database as the datasource. When the user uses the mouse to click on the selection the selectedindex is set proprerly, however when the user will enter some text and presses the tab key, selectedindex is set to -1.

I have attached some test code to duplicate the issue.

Imports System.Data.OleDb

VS 2010 ComboBox.SelectedIndex Can't Go Higher Than 9?

Apr 24, 2012

I'm working with a ComboBox which has 14 items.

Using the following code I got a problem

vb
If Me.ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 0 Then MsgBox("item 1")ElseIf Me.ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 1 Then MsgBox("item 2") '...ElseIf Me.ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 9 Then MsgBox("item 9") ElseIf Me.ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 10 Then MsgBox("item 10") '...End If

The problem is that after the SelectedIndex = 9 it won't read properly the SelectedIndex = 10, it seems like it consider only the first number (1) instead of the whole one (10). In fact get the same result as if it was SelectedIndex = 1

DataGridView - Capture Changed SelectedIndex Of Combobox

May 13, 2010

I have a DataGridView on a windows form.

The 4th column is a combo box column.

Now what I want to do is capture the event every time a value is changed in the combo box drop down (selectedindexchanged). When the index is changed, I want to grab the row number, and then I will grab the value of the now selectedindex and do some database updates with it.

I currently have tried to put together an event grabber when the combo box is changed, however it doesn't work correctly.

My code is:

Private Sub dgvRooms_EditingControlShowing(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs) _
Handles dgvRooms.EditingControlShowing

[Code].....

I put in a message box to check that it was capturing the event. I then noticed that it captures it more than once when you change the value.

The problem is when I go to click the down arrow on the row, the event is run once (message box show). Then you have to click a second time (event is run again with message box) before it shows the drop down list.

Then when you click on the value you wish in the drop down box it shows the message box (the only time I want it to run).

Then when I leave that row, it shows the message box two more times.

Effectively it goes to update the data 5 times, I only want to do it once.

I can not there is a pencil editing icon when you click on a row to the far left, and it appears when you leave the row, after already clicking on your value, it then checks on row leave that the values havn't changed, hence it runs two more times.

How do I make it so it only runs once on the value being changed?

Is there a way to disable the pencil editing, but still enable the combo box column to work? (be clickable and choose an option)

Lost Focus On Combobox In Datagridview

Jun 17, 2010

I have a datagridview with a combobox column. The combobox column is populated from a collection. I begin to add data to the dgv, I select in the first row a value in the combobox and go to the second row. In the second row, when the combobox gets the focus, it appears 'V18', also the selected value before. Why? An on the other, when the combobox in the second row losts the focus, the combobox value is nothing. Why? Here are two images:

I have a datagridview(dgv) with a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn(colLocation)

I added the colLocation to dgv."descirption" contains Unicode characters. I can see the comboBox correctly and choose the item.The problem is when the comboBox lost the focus, the value is changed to first item of the comboBox.

Updated:I found out that the ComboBox doesn't change the data when the DisplayMember is in English characters. It changes only when the DisplayMember is in Unicode chracter.

ComboBox Display On Screen And Saving Content To File

Apr 26, 2010

What I am attempting to do is make a form for a tire shop. I want to put comboboxes on the left side of the form that the employees make choices from. I then want to put some kind of a table or grid looking thing on the right side of the form that will display their choices so that everyone in the shop can look at it see that "John is on bay 5 until 3:00pm". At the end of the day I want all of the combobox choices to save to a file..I dont really need the table or the grid thing to save..just the choices. If I want to do this, do I need to use that gridview tool? or can I make my own table thing to display the choices in.

Change List Of Combobox A Based On Item Chosen From Combobox B?

Jun 17, 2011

I am new to vb.net and I am using visual studio 2010. I have two comboboxes on a form, each combobox is set to DropDownList so that a list of items can show in the combobox, but no text is allowed to be entered.

For combobox A, if user chooses item 1, the list of combobox B should be updated accordingly. I think this is quite common on a lot of applications. But I do not know to implement it. I even do not know the keyword to search for the relevant property or event handler.
