Hello Mark,

Data is bound to the combo by using the data source option. In order to set a default value it is needed the selected index option to be added (see the code snippet below):

@(Html.Infragistics().Combo().ID("combo1")

    .DataSource("/Home/GetData").SelectedIndexes(new int[]{0})

    .ValueKey("Name")

    .Render()

)

In this sample the default selected item is the first one from the list of items passed by the controller and its index is zero.

To your second question a possible approach is using the .NullText option for the text editor and setting its value to correspond to the default selected item value.

In order to apply changes to the text editor when the combo selection is changed it is needed the “igcomboselectionchanging” event to be handled. Please note that the text box is not updated dynamically as soon as the combo selection is changed since it is needed the whole page to be reloaded. If appropriate the scenario might be tested with partial views in order to reload page segments only.

Attached is a sample for your reference. Feel free to use it and modify it.

Since these questions are not regarding the initial issue discussed in the current thread I have created an additional internal ticket where I will keep on updating you with further information.

If any additional questions concerning the igGrid scenario arise don’t hesitate to update this thread.

Morning Dimka

Please revert back to me if you have had a chance to look at my request.

Thanks

Hi Dimka

We have had success with our original problem, but have a similar problem as detailed below.

What we are trying to achieve is:-

1. Open a view with a default value set in an igCombo control according to data from a model
2. Display the associated model data of the default value selected in (1) in separate igTextEditor controls
3. Upon change of the selected value in the igCombo control the associated data in the igTextEditor controls must change accordingly

Is there any example that we may work through to guide us in this requirement?

Your assistance is appreciated.
