UXDataLookupBox - Minor Bug when data available is just 1 record

Thank you for your interest in our ClientUI controls, especially UXDataLookUpBox control.

I have discussed about the minor bug with the development team. The reported problem is not confirmed as a bug. It is actually part of the user experience.

When the number of row matching a search criteria is only one record and it is entered as the first search, it is not necessary to show the row to the user and ask the user to select it. Instead of doing this, UXDataLookUpBox will automatically have the single row selected for the user.

There are two alternative ways to have the row displayed when the number of row matching a search criteria is only one record.

Enable AutoShowResultBox property
Using the default settings, UXDataLookUpBox will not open the result box immediately when users type in a query text. Instead, it waits until the search result becomes available and then display it along with the result box. Users will then select an item from the available results.
By setting the AutoShowResultBox property to True, UXDataComboBox immediately opens the result box as you type into the text box. While waiting for the search result, the search box displays the BusyText or BusyTemplate which indicates that the searching is in progress.
Enable IsDropDownOpen property
After bind the source of UXDataLookUpBox, bind the IsDropDownOpen property then set it to True when there is only one record returned as matching search.

Hope this helps.

UXDataLookupBox - Minor Bug when data available is just 1 record

Hi,

Just discovered a minor bug in UXDataLookupBox.

How to replicate It.

1. Form the sample application provided by you select the DataLokkupBoxExample.

2. Enter N in the DataLokkupBox and it will return Nothing.

3. Enter A it will show rows

4. Now enter N it will show the record.

So when the no of rows matching a search criteria is 1 record and it is entered as the first search the UXLookupBox fails.

subsequent searches do succeed.

Overall it is a great Control and would love if you can fix this minor bug.

Thanks
