Remarks
Set the ImmediatePopup property to true to display a popup window immediately after an end-user has typed a character to select an item from the popup list. The popup window can also be opened as follows:
- by clicking the button whose index is set in the RepositoryItemPopupBase.ActionButtonIndex property.
- by pressing the Alt+DownArrow key or the RepositoryItemPopupBase.CloseUpKey key in the edit box.
- by clicking the control’s edit box according to the RepositoryItemPopupBase.ShowDropDown property’s value
To open the dropdown via code, see the PopupBaseEdit.ShowPopup method.
For LookUpEdit editors, the ImmediatePopup property is only in effect when the RepositoryItemLookUpEdit.SearchMode property is set to SearchMode.AutoComplete. In SearchMode.AutoFilter mode, the dropdown is opened automatically when typing within the edit box. In SearchMode.OnlyInPopup search mode, typing within the edit box never opens the dropdown.
