TElTreeInplaceComboBox: Accepting an item not in the list.

RaymondWK

InplaceCB : TElTreeInplaceComboBox

I have the following events:

procedure TMainForm.InplaceCBValidateResult(Sender: TObject;

  var InputValid: Boolean);

begin

  if InplaceCB.Items.IndexOf(InplaceCB.Editor.Text) = -1 then // not in the list

  begin

    InplaceCB.Items.Append(InplaceCB.Editor.Text);

  end;

  EditedText := InplaceCB.Editor.Text; // Unnecessary, but used because the value became ''

  InputValid := True;

end;

procedure TMainForm.InplaceCBAfterOperation(Sender: TObject; var Accepted,

  DefaultConversion: Boolean);

begin

  if InplaceCB.Items.IndexOf(EditedText) = -1 then // not in the list

  begin

    InplaceCB.Items.Append(EditedText);

  end;

  ItemTree.ItemFocused.Cells[INDEX_Group].Text := EditedText; // Shouldn't have had to write this code!

  Accepted := True;

end;

If the ComboBox is closed when a new value is entered (i.e. not in the list), then the above code works to accept the value and the ElXTree places the new value in the cell.

If the ComboBox is Dropped Down then InplaceCB.Editor.Text = '', which is incorrect.

What needs to be done to be able to accept a new value when the list is dropped down?
Thanks.Raymond

I am sorry, but I can not reproduce ths issue. When I add dynamically add items to the list, they are correctly selected in combo.

Do you need more information from me?

As I cannot find a work-around or alternative for this, I am keen for you to either let me know what to do (using my demo as a basis) or fix the issue (if it is one).

Thanks.

Raymond.
