dhtmlxCombo - filtering by range on scroll

Suite and Optimus Suite 5
#1

Hi,
I would like to know if it’s possible to update combobox items when I scroll down the list of items.
For example, when you open your list of choice, the list contains only the first ten elements, and when you scroll down the list of items, the combobox is updated with the next ten elements.

I have implemented the same behavior but not on the scroll event (I must click to an specific item to update my combobox).

Is it possible to do that ? It’s a feature that will be implemented in the future?

Thanks in advance !

Hi,

yes, it is possible if you have set the 4th parameter of the enableFilteringMode method:

docs.dhtmlx.com/doku.php?id=dhtm … :filtering

The sample for this functionality is dhtmlxCombo/samples/04_filtering/01_combo_big_db.html ( dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dht … ig_db.html )

ok thank you !

Do you know if the filtering mode of the Combobox in XML will be implemented in JSON in the future (like the grid) ?

Currently we do not have plans to add loading from JSON to Combo. However, there is Connector - solution for easy and fast server-side implementation:

In case of using Connector you would not need to care about the format of datasource.
There are PHP, Java, .Net and ColdFusion editions.
