Hi
I am accessing the combobox with the id through
object.data = event.currentTarget.itemEditorInstance.foo.SelectedItem
it works fine, but the problem I have is, when I click on the combobox in the
gird, it defaults to the first item in the dataprovider for the combobox
<combobox id="foo" dataprovider={dprovider} text="{data.DataField}
labelField="datafield" />
the dprovider has the value cb1,cb2,cb3
when I click on the cell in the datagrid, the combobox is populated with cb1
irrespective of the value selected.
I have also tried
<combobox id="foo" dataprovider={dprovider} selectedItem = data.DataField}
labelField="datafield" />
this shows a blank combobox when clicked on the cell.
in both the cases it does give a warning
"unable to bind to property 'datafield' on class object
any suggestion
Thank you
