I am having an issue with the webdropdown automatically selecting the first value in this control. I am using version 14.1. As you can tell, it is tied to a data source on the screen. I do not have this issue when displaymode is set to DropDown. When I set it to DropDownList, it automatically selects the first item in the drop down. I am just trying to keep them from typing in the drop down. I don't want them to be able to type in the drop down as it will mess with my code behind. Thanks.
<ig:WebDropDown ID="cmbComplaints" runat="server" Width="225px" EnableClosingDropDownOnSelect="False" ValueField="ID" TextField="ComplaintType" EnableMultipleSelection="True" DataSourceID="DSComplaints" CurrentValue="" StyleSetName="Default" DisplayMode="DropDownList"></ig:WebDropDown>

if you use DisplayMode="DropDownList", you will not be able to set the current value and the first item will display automatically.
So I suggest you to use "DropDown" as DisplayMode and in order to prevent dropdown input to be edited, you can disable it via BLOCKED SCRIPT
$("input.igdd_ValueDisplay").attr("disabled", "disabled") or
$("input.igdd_ValueDisplay").attr("readonly", "true")
Please review the attached sample and let me know if you have additional questions.
