Hi,
are there changes in behavior of AutoCompletMode.SuggestAppend between versions 14.2.20142.2010 and 14.2.20142.2168 ?
I.e. there is given a DropDownList with some countries: L, S, SK, SLO
Old version: Input keys S-L -> Suggestion (like expected) is "SLO"
Newer version: Input keys S-L -> Suggestion is "L". Pressing S three times -> result is "SLO".
Thank you for help. Regards,
Olaf
Hello Olaf,
Thank you for your feedback.
When you set AutoCompleteMode to Append UltraComboEditor will append to the end of the entered string the reminder of most likely candidate string and will highlight the appended characters. When AutoCompleteMode is set to Suggets the combo will be dropped down automatically and will filter only the items starting with what the user has entered in the text field. When you set AutoCompleteMode to SuggestAppend it is actually combines both these – appending the most likely candidate string and filter the values in the drop down. More about AutoCompleteMode enumeration you may find by following the next link http://help.infragistics.com/Doc/WinForms/current/CLR4.0/?page=Infragistics4.Win.v15.2~Infragistics.Win.AutoCompleteMode.html.

Hi Milko,
the last problem ist, how AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend should work by design. In my case there seems to be no effect like no autocomplete.
Hi Olaf,
I am glad to hear that you have resolved your issue. Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

Regretfully I must confess, that it was my mistake. Formerly I used the obsolete AutoComplete = true. The advice is, to replace it with AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.Append. My mistake was to use AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend. But I don´t understand the difference exactly.
Additionally: There was changed the target .net framework from 4 to 4.5 in the application, too. Maybe that is important.
