We have a requirement for having an instant search as it start searching as you type 2-3 characters. Is there any control which has these feature directly out of box? Or is there any sample code available?
Hello HHH,
Thank you for your reply.
The IgniteUI toolset is fully compatible with jQuery UI and in this scenario based on the mentioned requirements I would suggest using the jQuery UI Autocomplete widget.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need more information.
I did see that control, only small problem I coudn't find simple way to get rid of the Combo image, I want look of text box, as if I show them as drop down, user will click on that and expect some value which I don't want to allow. I pretty much am looking for JQuery Autocomplete, but as I am using ignite ui controls, would have preferred using it, but it seems JQuery implementation is simpler then Ignite here.
Thank you for posting in the community !
