I’ve not used the CombBox, but I have used a TextField with a TextChangeListener and a PopupView showing a Table to achieve a very similar effect (I was aiming more for a Google AutoSearch field). By callingsetTextChangeTimeout, you can make a popup appear if the user hasn’t entered anything after x milliseconds.
I’m afraid I can’t really share the code itself - depends on lots of internal private stuff - but essentially I bound the textfield to a filter on a custom Container, which is then used by the Table.
For now database is not very large, but I’m afraid when I’ll have 20.000 rows, that all data will be fetched from the database. I wanted to do that on valueChange, the sqlContainer with filter LIKE is called, but I think it’s not working…
Ok, thank you. I’ll try to do the same like you did. I’ll ask more specific questions if I ran into problems. Thank you for now!
I had to create an extension of PopupView (including Client side)… I tried using PopupExtension, but it didn’t work for me as I was using a Table. It might work for you though.
No the problem with PopupExtension is still there. I have the same problem as you did…so I guess the only possible solution for me is also an extension? Any pointers?
