[CLOSED] Pre-select a item in custom search Comobobox in Ext 3.0

[sensorbox]

I need to show a "custom search" combobox (like this https://examples3.ext.net/#/Form/Com...Custom_Search/ ) with an item initially selected. How can I do this? I've tried "SelectedItems.Add" (in Page_Load page method) but did not work.

Hello @sensorbox!

I've checked the sample you linked in and, when I type something (asterisk, part of the name of a valid entry) the first entry is always selected. You are saying that you weren't able to reproduce the behavior of the example on your code?

If the sample does not select the first entry for you, which browser/version are you using?

EDIT: on a second thought... say you defined that first combo box on the example you pointed as cbx1. To have a value initially assigned to it, you could just do this:

cbx1.SetValue("Bloodroot");

As far as the result is valid, you'll be fine. The combo itself stores/shows just the search criteria.

If this does not fit your scenario, would you share with us a simple example illustrating how it does not work, and how it should work for you?
