Hi,I have noticed that the HeaderTemplate propery is missing from the new 15.1 igCombo.Is there any replacement or way to set a header for the dropdown items?
And is there some information about what else was changed with this control or the others control? Thanks
Hi, http://www.igniteui.com/help/igcombo-migrating-to-the-new-combo. However, it is a nightmare...
Hello Amos,
Thank you for contacting Infragistics!
The header template functionality did not make it for the first version of the new igCombo control and it is planned for the next release.
As mentioned a full list of changes can be found in the Migrating to the new combo topic.
In the meantime if you want to use the new control and still provide a header there might be a way to add/position an element to the combo dropDown that I can help with. Of course, my recommendation would always be to wait for the official feature if possible.
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Hi,
Thanks for the quick answer.I went through that document mentioned above. Most things I was able to migrate successfully. If the workaround for the header is too complicated, I think I would prefer waiting for official release.
However one bug that is annoying with the new version is that item selected (initialSelectedItems) in the combo dropdown does not scroll into view when I open the combo dropdown.Where opening the dropdown it always opens on the first X items - previous versions scrolled the dropdown content so the selected item is in view.
One more thing is that when clicking the dropdown button, the button stays with the "pressed" style after the dropdown is closed.
I have tried to place a support request, but I could not fing the igCombo in the component list.
Thanks
I have provided the appropriate development team with your feedback. To ensure that it will receive attention, we have logged this behavior in our internal tracking system with a Development ID of 192964 (When an item is selected and drop down is opened the selected item should be in the visible area). A support case is created on your behalf with number CAS-154549-L1G0N7, so that you can be automatically notified when the bug is fixed.
You can find your active cases under Account - Support Activity in our website. Select your ticket and go to Development Issues tab to view the status of related bugs.
For the second scenario you mentioned – the igCombo doesn’t have any ‘pressed’ style for the button. Instead, while the input is focused the entire control is in ‘active’ state and the button has a hover effect only. The styles applied to the button can be modified targeting (this is general active state):
.ui-igcombo.ui-state-active .ui-igcombo-button { /* override active button styles */}
You could also remove the active state of the igCombo by calling blur() on the textInput if that fits your scenario.
Thank you,
You have been very helpful
