remote search

[damcParticipant]

Hi.

How can I set or select some value in combo with remote search feature. I would like to select a value which is not yet loaded.
Is there some function which can I use from code and have same functionality like search function which is called when the user types into the ComboBox’s input field?

Thanks,
Damc

Hello Damc,

You cannot select the item before it is loaded, but can do it immediately after that, on the bindingComplete event. E.g.:

$("#jqxComboBox").on('bindingComplete', function (event) {
    var item = $("#jqxComboBox").jqxComboBox('getItemByValue', "London");
    $("#jqxComboBox").jqxComboBox('selectItem', item);
});

Best Regards,
Dimitar

Hello Dimitar,

And how can I load this item (Is there some function which can I use from code and have same functionality like search function which is called when the user types into the ComboBox’s input field)?

Thanks,

Hi Damc,

You can load the item only by searching for it (typing in the combobox input).
