I took the example from here: http://www.igniteui.com/combo/load-on-demand
and modified it slightly:
$("#combo").one("igcombodatabound", function(){ setTimeout(function(){ $("#combo").igCombo("dropDownVisible", true); },0); });
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/7qNU7/1/
Clicking the dropdown arrow will trigger the databinding. However, the spinner is not displayed. Additionally, I needed to add the custom code above to display the dropdown after the data is retrieved.
Hi Bertm13,
This issue with the dataBindOnOpen option is already fixed. You don't need to attach to data bound event and show the drop down manually - it just should work. In addition when data is requested on demand, the loading indicator will appear and after data is loaded, the indicator will disappear. You can download the latest service release from here.
I will wait for your feedback.
Best regards,
Nikolay Alipiev
